This research underscores the complexity of RNA processing in chloroplasts and mitochondria and the need for a coordinated action of multiple proteins to achieve effective gene expression.

PDV1 was thought to work corporately with PDV2 to recruit ARC5 to the chloroplast division site in the cytosol. However, we found that the major role of PDV1 is to interact with and regulate the ...

Scientists recreated the origins of one of life's most important partnerships, uncovering how symbiotic relationships can ...

Chloroplast NAD(P)H dehydrogenase (NDH) complex, a multiple-subunit complex in the thylakoid membranes mediating cyclic electron transport, is one of the most important alternative electron transport ...

These evidences introduce a novel concept of mitoepigenetics that refers to the study of modulations in the mitochondria that alter heritable phenotype in mitochondria itself without changing the ...

Evolution was fueled by endosymbiosis, cellular alliances in which one microbe makes a permanent home inside another. For the ...

This then produces new sub-cellular structures such as mitochondria, ribosomes and chloroplasts. During this stage, one set of chromosomes is pulled to the sides of the cell and the nucleus divides.

Unlike us, plants don't need pantries full of food to stay alive; the Sun is their pantry. But, like us, they require fairly regular sustenance, which they create via photosynthesis. This ...

Read a timeless African tale from Togo, where humanity and nature intertwine in a cosmic symphony of shared origins and ...

Red algal chloroplasts stayed active in hamster cells for 48 hours A new technique enables chloroplast integration into animal cells Study offers potential for photosynthesis in non-plant organisms ...
