Entamoeba Mitosomal Proteins (section 8)
Mitosomal Proteins
The function of the mitosome, a mitochondrial remnant organelle, was
explored as part of the Entamoeba histolytica genome
project. Several genes encoding mitosomal proteins have been
identified including genes encoding mitochondrial-type chaperonins (cpn60, hsp10,
mt-hsp70), pyridine nucleotide transhydrogenase, an ADP/ATP
transporter, a P-glycoprotein-like protein (Pgp6), a mitochondrial
type thrioredoxin and genes homologous to IscS/NifS and IscU/NifU.
Gene Name, protein models (XP) linked to NCBI's Entrez Protein database,
(Protein Accession), mRNA models (XM) included in the reannotation linked to TIGR's Annotation Display (Pathema Annotation Link),
mRNA models not included in the reannoation linked to NCBI's Nucleotide database (Models Excluded from the Reannotation)
and Protein Designation are presented.
