Mitochondrial differentiation in kinetoplastid protozoa: a plethora of RNA controls.
Differentiation of kinetoplastid protozoa during their complex life cycles is accompanied by stepwise changes in mitochondrial functions. Recent studies have begun to reveal multilevel post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms by which the expression of the nuclear and mitochondrially encoded components of respiratory enzymes is coordinated, as well as the identities of some general and gene-specific factors controlling mitochondrial differentiation.
