Converting antimicrobial into targeting peptides reveals key features governing protein import into mitochondria and chloroplasts

O. D. Caspari, C. Garrido, C. O. Law, Y. Choquet, F.-A. Wollman, I. Lafontaine

The paper converts antimicrobial peptides into targeting peptides for mitochondria and chloroplasts by modifying their sequences and assessing their localization and maturation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.

Evidence supporting an antimicrobial origin of targeting peptides to endosymbiotic organelles

C. O. Garrido, O. D. Caspari, Y. Choquet, F.-A. Wollman, I. Lafontaine

The paper shows antimicrobial peptides and organelle-targeting peptides are evolutionarily linked through computational and functional evidence in algae.

Yeast de novo genes preferentially emerge from divergently transcribed, GC-rich intergenic regions

N. Vakirlis, A. S. Hebert, D. A. Opulente, G. Achaz, C. T. Hittinger, G. Fischer, J. J. Coon, I. Lafontaine

The paper identifies 703 de novo genes in 15 yeast species and finds they preferentially arise from GC-rich intergenic regions near divergent promoters and recombination hotspots.
