Journal ArticleDOI
Uncoupling of chloroplast reproductive events from cell cycle division processes by 5-fluorodeoxyuridine in the alga Scenedesmus quadricauda
TL;DR: It was shown that FdUrd specifically blocked nucDNA replication but not ptDNA replication, which provided evidence that attainment of commitment to and termination of the entire sequence of reproductive events, including chloroplast fission, were controlled by different mechanisms than the reproductive processes in the nucleocytoplasmic compartment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation, characterization, and chromosomal mapping of an ftsZ gene from the unicellular primitive red alga Cyanidium caldarium RK-1.
Manabu Takahara,Hidenori Takahashi,Sachihiro Matsunaga,Atsushi Sakai,Shigeyuki Kawano,Tsuneyoshi Kuroiwa +5 more
TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis indicated that C. caldarium RK-1 and other eukaryotic ftsZ genes are the descendants of cyanobacterial fts Z genes, supporting the current agreement that FtsZ is involved in plastid division.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential for biparental cytoplasmic inheritance in Jasminum officinale and Jasminum nudiflorum
TL;DR: Findings demonstrated the preservation of plastid and mitochondrial DNA in mature sperm cells and thus the potential for biparental cytoplasmic inheritance in J. officinale and J. nudiflorum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complex terminal structure of a linear mitochondrial plasmid from Physarum polycephalum : three terminal inverted repeats and an ORF encoding DNA polymerase
TL;DR: The mitochondria of Physarum polycephalum have a linear plasmid (mF) which promotes mitochondrial fusion, and restriction fragments derived from its ends were cloned and sequenced to determine the terminal structure of the mF plasmids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early zygote-specific nuclease in mitochondria of the true slime mold Physarum polycephalum.
TL;DR: The timing and localization of the Mn2+-dependent DNase activity matched the selective digestion of mtDNA, and two novel nucleases were identified using DNA zymography with native-PAGE and SDS-PAGES.
