Gene duplications trace mitochondria to the onset of eukaryote complexity

F. D. K. Tria, J. Brueckner, J. Skejo, J. C. Xavier, V. Zimorski, S. B. Gould, S. G. Garg, W. F. Martin

The paper identifies gene duplication events in the last eukaryote common ancestor (LECA) that suggest mitochondrial gene transfer preceded the onset of eukaryotic complexity.

Lipids are the preferred substrate of the protist Naegleria gruberi, relative of a human brain pathogen

M. Bexkens, V. Zimorski, M. J. Sarink, H. Wienk, J. F. Brouwers, J. F. De Jonckheere, W. F. Martin, F. R. Opperdoes, J. J. van Hellemond, A. G. M. Tielens

This study shows that Naegleria gruberi relies on lipid oxidation for growth and energy metabolism, unlike glucose or amino acids, and suggests similar metabolism in its pathogenic relative N. fowleri.
