Origins of Mitochondria

Current concepts relating to the origin of mitochondria are most readily understood before the backdrop of how these concepts arose. Since about 1967,... [Pg.3]

The 1980 view assumed that the prokaryote-to-eukaryote transition occurred via gradualist mechanisms such as point mutation and hence did not involve symbiosis at all (van Valen and Maiorana 1980 Doolittle 1980) and culminated with a cell that possessed a nucleus, but lacked mitochondria. This is what Doolittle (1998) has called the standard model . In this view, mitochondria are interpreted as a small tack-on to, and mechanistically unrelated to, the process that made eukaryotic cells nucleated and complex (Cavalier-Smith 2002). In the standard model, mitochondria (and chloro-plasts) are descended from endosymbionts, but the nuts-and-bolts of the prokaryote-to-eukaryote transition (the origin of eukaryote-specific traits) was seen as having occurred independently from, and prior to, the origin of mitochondria. The paper by van Valen and Maiorana (1980) expresses this view in clear physiological terms the host was assumed to be an amoeboid, anaerobic, fermenting cell related to archaebacteria, the advantage of the mitochondrial endosymbiont was to supply ATP. [Pg.5]

The machinery mediating this process was shown to be of an ISC type. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that the mitochondrial ISC machinery was inherited from the proteobacterial endosymbiont, which is consistent with the proposed origin of mitochondria (Tachezy et al. 2001). Components of the SUF system were found in plastids and in the apicoplast of apicomplexan such as P. falciparum (Wilson et al. 2003). The SUF machinery was most likely inherited from cyanobacteria, the ancestors of plastids (Tachezy et al. 2001). Entamoebids and related protists are the only eukaryotes which acquired components of the NIF system ( et al. 2004 van der Giezen et al. [Pg.215]

The existence of mitochondrial DNA, ribosomes, and tRNAs supports the hypothesis of the endosymbiotic origin of mitochondria (see Fig. 1-36), which holds that the first organisms capable of aerobic metabolism, including respiration-linked ATP production, were prokaryotes. Primitive eukaryotes that lived anaerobically (by fermentation) acquired the ability to carry out oxidative phosphorylation when they established a symbiotic relationship with bacteria living in their cytosol. After much evolution and the movement of many bacterial genes into the nucleus of the host eukaryote, the endosymbiotic bacteria eventually became mitochondria. [Pg.721]

Whatley et al. (1979) in an overview of the origins of mitochondria and chloroplasts raised the possibility that hydrogenosomes arose through an independent endosymbiotic event. This idea agreed well with our thinking at the time and I embraced it wholeheartedly. In my review of 1980 I discussed this problem as follows ... [Pg.10]
