The development of intracytoplasmic membranes in alphaproteobacteria involves the conserved mitochondrial crista-developing protein Mic60

S. A. Munoz-Gomez, L. R. Cadena, A. T. Gardiner, M. M. Leger, S. Sheikh, L. Connell, T. Bily, K. Kopejtka, J. T. Beatty, M. Koblizek, A. J. Roger, C. H. Slamovits, J. Lukes, H. Hashimi

This study shows that Mic60 homologs in alphaproteobacteria are involved in intracytoplasmic membrane development and contact site formation, supporting the hypothesis that mitochondrial cristae evolved from bacterial ICMs.

Formal Recognition and Classification of Gene Transfer Agents as Viriforms

R. Kogay, S. Koppenhofer, J. T. Beatty, A. S. Lang, J. H. Kuhn, O. Zhaxybayeva

The paper argues that gene transfer agents (GTAs) should be classified as viriforms rather than viruses due to their unique lifecycle and genetic characteristics.
