Major insights into the phylogenetic distribution, biochemistry, and evolutionary significance
of organelles involved in ATP synthesis (energy metabolism) in eukaryotes that thrive in …

Oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) is the main source of energy in eukaryotic cells. This
process is performed by means of electron flow between four enzymes, of which three are …

Dr. Harris has played a major role in the development of this organism as a model system.
Her previous version of the Chlamydomonas Sourcebook which published in 1989, has …

The last steps of cellular respiration—an essential metabolic process in plants—are carried
out by mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. This process involves a chain of multi …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNAs, 21 to 22 nucleotides long, with important regulatory
roles. They are processed from longer RNA molecules with imperfectly matched foldback …

Aquatic photosynthetic organisms, such as the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii,
respond to low CO 2 conditions by inducing a CO 2 concentrating mechanism (CCM) …

Mitochondrial complex I is the main site for electron transfer to the respiratory chain and
generates much of the proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. Complex I …

Photosynthetic organisms are among the earliest life forms on earth and their biochemistry is
strictly dependent on a wide range of inorganic nutrients owing to the use of metal cofactor …

Mitochondria play a key role in the life and death of eukaryotic cells, yet the full spectrum of
mitochondrial functions is far from being fully understood, especially in photosynthetic …

We surveyed the iron nutrition-responsive transcriptome of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
using RNA-Seq methodology. Presumed primary targets were identified in comparisons …
