Eukaryotic cell DNA in a nucleus, plasmids are found in a few simple eukaryotic organisms. Prokaryotic cell DNA is a single molecule, found free in the cytoplasm; additional DNA is found on one or ...

At some point, a eukaryotic cell engulfed an aerobic prokaryote, which then formed an endosymbiotic relationship with the host eukaryote, gradually developing into a mitochondrion. Eukaryotic ...

Asgard archaea may have led to the evolution of eukaryotic life ETH Zurich researchers identify actin and microtubule ...

Asgard archaea emerged as a key piece in the puzzle of how complex life evolved, acting as a potential link between simple archaea and eukaryotes—organisms like plants and animals whose cells contain ...

Ancoracysta is a protist, a group of unicellular, eukaryotic organisms that sit at the root of the eukaryotic tree of life. For researchers such as Janouškovec, they are an ... After a year teaching ...

Genetic switches could play a role in creating complex eukaryotic genetic circuits for programmed cell-free systems or artificial cells.
