Scientists map mitochondrial proteins across six organisms in unprecedented detail

Original: 'Scientists have mapped in unprecedented detail the proteins that make up the mitochondria in six organisms — five singl

Researchers have produced the most detailed maps yet of the proteins that make up mitochondria in six organisms, spanning the eukaryotic tree of life: five single-celled parasites and one plant. The work, covered by Nature, offers a comparative view of how these cellular powerhouses are built across distantly related species, with potential relevance for understanding parasitic diseases and fundamental cell biology.

Why now: New research published in Nature offers an unusually broad comparative look at mitochondrial biology, attracting attention from scientists and science readers.
