Journal ArticleDOI
An ancestral mitochondrial DNA resembling a eubacterial genome in miniature
Bernd Lang,Gertraud Burger,O'Kelly Cj,Robert Cedergren,G. B. Golding,Claude Lemieux,David Sankoff,Monique Turmel,Michael W. Gray +8 more
TL;DR: Feature of gene content together with eubacterial characteristics of genome organization and expression not found before in mitochondrial genomes indicate that R. americana mtDNA more closely resembles the ancestral proto-mitochondrial genome than any other mtDNA investigated to date.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome structure and gene content in protist mitochondrial dnas
Michael W. Gray,B. Franz Lang,Robert Cedergren,G. Brian Golding,Claude Lemieux,David Sankoff,Monique Turmel,Nicolas Brossard,Eric Delage,Tim G. Littlejohn,Isabelle Plante,Pierre A. Rioux,Diane Saint-Louis,Yun Zhu,Gertraud Burger +14 more
TL;DR: A review of protist mtDNA sequences determined to date comments on such aspects as mitochondrial genome structure, gene content, ribosomal RNA, introns, transfer RNAs and the genetic code and phylogenetic implications, and illustrates the utility of a comparative genomics approach to gene identification.
Journal ArticleDOI
The complete chloroplast DNA sequence of the green alga Nephroselmis olivacea: Insights into the architecture of ancestral chloroplast genomes
TL;DR: The complete chloroplast DNA sequence of Nephroselmis olivacea, a member of the class (Prasinophyceae) thought to include descendants of the earliest-diverging green algae, is determined and phylogenetic analyses offer insight into the chlorophyte ancestor of euglenophyte chloroplasts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ancestral chloroplast genome in Mesostigma viride reveals an early branch of green plant evolution
TL;DR: The structure and gene organization of this genome indicate that chloroplast DNA architecture has been extremely well conserved in the line leading to land plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
The chloroplast ycf3 and ycf4 open reading frames of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii are required for the accumulation of the photosystem I complex.
TL;DR: RNA blot hybridizations showed that transcripts of psaA, psaB and psaC accumulate normally in these mutants and use of chimeric reporter genes revealed that Ycf3 is not required for initiation of translation of pSAA and pSAB mRNA.
