Characterisation of the SUF FeS cluster machinery in the amitochondriate eukaryote Monocercomonoides exilis

P. Pena-Diaz, J. J. Braymer, V. Vacek, M. Zelena, S. Lometto, I. Hrdy, S. C. Treitli, G. Hochberg, B. Py, R. Lill, V. Hampl

This study characterizes the SUF FeS cluster machinery in the amitochondriate eukaryote Monocercomonoides exilis, showing it can replace the mitochondrial ISC system in bacteria.

Genomics of Preaxostyla Flagellates Illuminates the Path Towards the Loss of Mitochondria

L. V. F. Novak, S. C. Treitli, J. Pyrih, P. Hałakuc, S. V. Pipaliya, V. Vacek, O. Brzon, P. Soukal, L. Eme, J. B. Dacks, A. Karnkowska, M. Elias, V. Hampl

This paper reports genome and transcriptome analyses of two Preaxostyla species, confirming the complete loss of mitochondria in multiple oxymonad species and suggesting amitochondriality is common in the group.
