Mitochondrial genomes of photosynthetic euglenids and alveolates
Original language description
Euglenida belong to the eukaryotic supergroup Excavata, the members of which possess the most varied mitochondrial genomes in terms of their structure and gene content. Heterotrophic protists represent the majority of Excavata, as only the Euglenida contain a green plastid, apparently acquired by secondary endosymbiosis. The sister group of Euglenida, the mostly parasitic Kinetoplastida, have an extremely complex mitochondrial DNA (kinetoplast DNA), which is usually composed of thousands of mutually interlocked DNA circles. Most mRNAs encoded by this genome are rendered translatable only after they undergo intricate editing via insertions and/or deletions of uridines. The mitochondrial DNA of the other sister group, Diplonemida, is unique as its transcripts must be massively trans-spliced before translation. None of these complex mechanisms has so far been found in the mitochondrial genome and transcriptome of Euglena gracilis, the best studied member of Euglenida. Its mitochondrial DN
