Non-Mendelian Mutation in Paramecium tetraurelia
The Paramecium tetraurelia mutant called d48 has a complete copy of the A surface protein gene in its micronuclei, but lacks the A gene in the macronucleus. Previous experiments have shown that microinjection of a plasmid containing the entire A gene or a large portion of the gene into the macronucleus of d48 rescued the cell line after formation of a new macronucleus (autogamy). Here we show t...
متن کاملChloroplast and cytoplasmic ribosomes of Euglena: selective binding of dihydrostreptomycin to chloroplast ribosomes.
Dihydrostreptomycin binds preferentially to chloroplast ribosomes of wild-type Euglena gracilis Klebs var. bacillaris Pringsheim. The K(diss) for the wild-type chloroplast ribosome-dihydrostreptomycin complex is 2 x 10(-7) M, a value comparable with that found for the Escherichia coli ribosome-dihydrostreptomycin complex. Chloroplast ribosomes isolated from the streptomycin-resistant mutant Sm(...
متن کاملThe photosynthetic endosymbiont in cryptomonad cells produces both chloroplast and cytoplasmic-type ribosomes.
Cryptomonad algae contain a photosynthetic, eukaryotic endosymbiont. The endosymbiont is much reduced but retains a small nucleus. DNA from this endosymbiont nucleus encodes rRNAs, and it is presumed that these rRNAs are incorporated into ribosomes. Surrounding the endosymbiont nucleus is a small volume of cytoplasm proposed to be the vestigial cytoplasm of the endosymbiont. If this compartment...
متن کاملHuman mitochondrial ribosomes can switch their structural RNA composition.
The recent developments in cryo-EM have revolutionized our access to previously refractory structures. In particular, such studies of mammalian mitoribosomes have confirmed the absence of any 5S rRNA species and revealed the unexpected presence of a mitochondrially encoded tRNA (mt-tRNA) that usurps this position. Although the cryo-EM structures resolved the conundrum of whether mammalian mitor...
متن کاملPreparation and proteomic analysis of chloroplast ribosomes.
Proteomics of chloroplast ribosomes in spinach and Chlamydomonas revealed unique protein composition and structures of plastid ribosomes. These studies have suggested the presence of some ribosomal proteins unique to plastid ribosomes which may be involved in plastid-unique translation regulation. Considering the strong background of genetic analysis and molecular biology in Arabidopsis, the in...
