This makes it a critical part of prokaryotic cell function. Prokaryotes do not have mitochondria. Interestingly, one widely accepted theory of eukaryotic evolution, known as the endosymbiotic theory, ...

Mitochondria are cytoplasmic organelles found in most eukaryotic cells. They are formed from an outer membrane, a highly invaginated inner membrane containing cristae, and a matrix. Mitochondria ...

Cell contents Cytoplasm, cell organelles include mitochondria ... plasmids are found in a few simple eukaryotic organisms. DNA is a single molecule, found free in the cytoplasm; additional ...

Mitochondria in intact cells can transiently accumulate calcium during cell stimulation. The heterogeneity of the response, the extremely high calcium concentrations reached in the mitochondrial ...

In biology textbooks, the endoplasmic reticulum is often portrayed as a distinct, compact organelle near the nucleus, and is commonly known to be ...

A thermal stability-based proteomic analysis identifies cytoplasmic PEBP1 as a mediator of mitochondrial dysfunction-induced stress response, highlighting its potential role in cellular adaptation ...

In biology textbooks, the endoplasmic reticulum is often portrayed as a distinct, compact organelle near the nucleus, and is commonly known to be responsible for protein trafficking and secretion. In ...

Mitochondria are the critical organelles for energy metabolism and cell survival in eukaryotic cells. Recent studies demonstrated that mitochondria can intercellularly transfer between mammalian cells ...

Mitoribosomes are present in the mitochondria of all eukaryotic cells. Their function is to allow the translation of mitochondrial mRNA that exclusively encodes components of the oxidative ...

The first complete 3D reconstruction of the compound eye of a minute wasp species sheds light on the nuts and bolts of size reduction.
