title: [Nuclear origin of peroxisomes, the probable precursors of mitochondria in hydrocarbon-oxidizing yeasts of the genus Candida].
abstract: On studying the ultrathin sections of the Candida yeast cells, continuously and periodically cultured in the mineral medium with n-alkanes it has been shown that microbodies (peroxisomes) may be present both in the nucleus and in the perinuclear zone form which they are able to migrate into the cytoplasm. The endoplasmatic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus and mitochondria are not presumably involved structurally in the appearance of microbodies. The data were presented on close structural and functional resemblance between microbodies and mitochondria. It is supposed that in n-alkane-assimilating cells Candida microbodies may be precursors of mitochondria.
