ERAD-Derived Preprotein Transport across the Second Outermost Plastid Membrane of Diatoms (2009)

Hempel, Franziska, Bullmann, Lars, Lau, Julia, Zauner, Stefan, Maier, Uwe G.

The diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum harbors a plastid that is surrounded by four membranes and evolved by way of secondary endosymbiosis. Like land plants, most of its plastid proteins are encoded...

Complex chloroplast RNA metabolism: just debugging the genetic programme? (2008)

Maier, Uwe G, Bozarth, Andrew, Funk, Helena T, Zauner, Stefan, Rensing, Stefan A, Schmitz-Linneweber, Christian, ...

Abstract Background The gene expression system of chloroplasts is far more complex than that of their cyanobacterial progenitor. This gain in complexity affects in particular RNA metabolism,...

Ancient Recruitment by Chromists of Green Algal Genes Encoding Enzymes for Carotenoid Biosynthesis (2008)

Frommolt, Ruth, Werner, Sonja, Paulsen, Harald, Goss, Reimund, Wilhelm, Christian, Zauner, Stefan, ...

Chromist algae (stramenopiles, cryptophytes, and haptophytes) are major contributors to marine primary productivity. These eukaryotes acquired their plastid via secondary endosymbiosis, whereby an...

Differential gene transfers and gene duplications in primary and secondary endosymbioses (2006)

Zauner, Stefan, Lockhart, Peter, Stoebe-Maier, Bettina, Gilson, Paul, McFadden, Geoffrey I, Maier, Uwe G

Abstract Background Most genes introduced into phototrophic eukaryotes during the process of endosymbiosis are either lost or relocated into the host nuclear genome. In contrast, gro EL homologues...

Unique tRNA Introns of an Enslaved Algal Cell (2005)

Kawach, Oliver, Voß, Christine, Wolff, Jonci, Hadfi, Katalin, Maier, Uwe-G., Zauner, Stefan

Nucleomorphs are remnant nuclei of eukaryotic, secondary endosymbionts exclusively found in cryptophytes and chlorarachniophytes. The nucleomorph of the cryptophyte Guillardia theta codes for 36...

A Nucleomorph-Encoded CbbX and the Phylogeny of RuBisCo Regulators (2000)

Maier, Uwe-G., Fraunholz, Martin, Zauner, Stefan, Penny, Susanne, Douglas, Susan

Chloroplasts contain proteins that are encoded by different genetic systems, the plastid genome and the nuclear chromosomes. By comparing the gene content of plastid genomes of different taxa, some...

Chloroplast protein and centrosomal genes, a tRNA intron, and odd telomeres in an unusually compact eukaryotic genome, the cryptomonad nucleomorph

Zauner, Stefan, Fraunholz, Martin, Wastl, Jürgen, Penny, Susanne, Beaton, Margaret, Cavalier-Smith, Thomas, ...

Cells of several major algal groups are evolutionary chimeras of two radically different eukaryotic cells. Most of these “cells within cells” lost the nucleus of the former algal endosymbiont....

Rhodopsin-Mediated Photoreception in Cryptophyte Flagellates

Sineshchekov, Oleg A., Govorunova, Elena G., Jung, Kwang-Hwan, Zauner, Stefan, Maier, Uwe-G., Spudich, John L.

We show that phototaxis in cryptophytes is likely mediated by a two-rhodopsin-based photosensory mechanism similar to that recently demonstrated in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, and for...
