Endosymbiotic theories for eukaryote origin
For over 100 years, endosymbiotic theories have figured in thoughts about the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. More than 20 different versions of endosymbiotic theory have been presented in the literature to explain the origin of eukaryotes and their mitochondria. Very few of those models account for eukaryotic anaerobes. The role of energy and the energetic constraints tha...
متن کاملProteinHistorian: Tools for the Comparative Analysis of Eukaryote Protein Origin
The evolutionary history of a protein reflects the functional history of its ancestors. Recent phylogenetic studies identified distinct evolutionary signatures that characterize proteins involved in cancer, Mendelian disease, and different ontogenic stages. Despite the potential to yield insight into the cellular functions and interactions of proteins, such comparative phylogenetic analyses are...
متن کاملThe nucleolar proteome and the (endosymbiotic) origin of the nucleus.
Sir, Nucleoli are essential regions of the eukaryotic nuclei where the ribosomes are assembled. The human nucleolar proteome has been studied in the last two years, leading to the identification of several hundreds of proteins. In a recent Bioessays’ article, Staub et al. characterise a large set of conserved domains in these nucleolar proteins. The search of these domains in other organisms re...
متن کاملThe endosymbiotic origin, diversification and fate of plastids.
Plastids and mitochondria each arose from a single endosymbiotic event and share many similarities in how they were reduced and integrated with their host. However, the subsequent evolution of the two organelles could hardly be more different: mitochondria are a stable fixture of eukaryotic cells that are neither lost nor shuffled between lineages, whereas plastid evolution has been a complex m...
متن کاملIv Theories of Music Origin
Analysis of the phrase structure and phonological properties of musical and linguistic utterances suggests that music and language evolved from a common ancestor, something I refer to as the “musilanguage” stage. In this view, the many structural features shared between music and language are the result of their emergence from a joint evolutionary precursor rather than from fortuitous paralleli...
