| Beschreibung: | Angomonas deanei is a cosmopolitan species of monoxenous trypanosomatids parasitizing the gut of numerous insects. It harbors a tightly integrated bacterial endosymbiont that complements the metabolism of its osmotrophic host, supplying heme, several amino acids, nucleotides, and vitamins. The endosymbiont is closely associated with host glycosomes that adapted in protein composition, likely to provide the endosymbiont with metabolic intermediates. Remarkably, the single endosymbiont grows and divides in synchrony with its host. This synchronization of cell cycles appears to be enabled by the loss of most of the bacterial division machinery and evolution of a set of endosymbiont-targeted host proteins (ETPs). A dynamin-based machinery composed of ETPs became essential for endosymbiont division and may reflect an early stage of a trajectory converting a bacterium into an organelle. Efficient genetic manipulation makes A. deanei a versatile model for studying host/symbiont interaction. | |||||||
