Recurrent evolutionary switches of mitochondrial cytochrome c maturation systems in Archaeplastida
Abstract Mitochondrial cytochrome c maturation (CCM) requires heme attachment via distinct pathways termed systems I and III. The mosaic distribution of these systems in Archaeplastida raises questions about the genetic mechanisms and evolutionary forces promoting repeated evolution. Here, we show a...
