DOI: 10.1038/s42003-025-08284-5

Abstract: As in plastid differentiation in land plants, some unicellular algae reversibly remodel photosynthetic plastids into a colorless heterotrophic state (bleaching) in the presence of organic carbon sources. To understand these mechanisms and their significance, we… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2210665119

Abstract: Significance Sexual reproduction has not been observed in unicellular red algae and Glaucophyceae, early branching groups in Archaeplastida, in which red algae and Viridiplantae independently evolved multicellular sexual life cycles. The finding of sexual reproduction… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Plant and Cell Physiology"

DOI: 10.1093/pcp/pcy156

Abstract: The nuclear genome of the unicellular red alga Cyanidioschyzon merolae can be modified by homologous recombination with exogenously introduced DNA. However, it is presently difficult to modify multiple chromosome loci because of the limited number… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "BMC Plant Biology"

DOI: 10.1186/s12870-021-03365-z

Abstract: Background The unicellular red alga Cyanidioschyzon merolae exhibits a very simple cellular and genomic architecture. In addition, procedures for genetic modifications, such as gene targeting by homologous recombination and inducible/repressible gene expression, have been developed.… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Journal of Cell Science"

DOI: 10.1242/jcs.262042

Abstract: Mitochondrial biogenesis relies on hundreds of proteins which are derived from genes encoded in the nucleus. According to characteristic properties of N-terminal targeting peptides (TP) and multi-step authentication by the protein translocase called the TOM… read more here.
