Mitochondrial mRNA Processing in the Chlorophyte Alga <i>Pediastrum duplex</i> and Streptophyte Alga <i>Chara vulgaris</i> Reveals an Evolutionary Branch in Mitochondrial mRNA Processing

Mitochondrial mRNA Processing in the Chlorophyte Alga <i>Pediastrum duplex</i> and Streptophyte Alga <i>Chara vulgaris</i> Reveals an Evolutionary Branch in Mitochondrial mRNA Processing

Mitochondria carry the remnant of an ancestral bacterial chromosome and express those genes with a system separate and distinct from the nucleus. Mitochondrial genes are transcribed as poly-cistronic primary transcripts which are post-transcriptionally processed to create individual translationally...
