Microsporidia constitute a group of extremely specialized intracellular parasites that infect virtually all animals. They are highly derived, reduced fungi that lack several features typical of other...
A high frequency of overlapping gene expression in compacted eukaryotic genomes
Williams, Bryony A. P., Slamovits, Claudio H., Patron, Nicola J., Fast, Naomi M., Keeling, Patrick J.
The gene density of eukaryotic nuclear genomes is generally low relative to prokaryotes, but several eukaryotic lineages (many parasites or endosymbionts) have independently evolved highly compacted,...

Microsporidian mitosomes retain elements of the general mitochondrial targeting system
Burri, Lena, Williams, Bryony A. P., Bursac, Dejan, Lithgow, Trevor, Keeling, Patrick J.
Microsporidia are intracellular parasites that infect a variety of animals, including humans. As highly specialized parasites, they are characterized by a number of unusual adaptations, many of which...
