Abstract excerpt
Interorganellar regulatory interactions in the flagellate Euglena gracilis were shown to be more complicated than in green algae and higher plants. Euglena plastids have a much more complex influence on nuclear gene expression than was previously thought. The petJ gene for cytochrome c6 represents a group of nucleus-encoded genes for chloroplast proteins, the expression of which is influenced by the state of...
