Resumo

Mitochondria, the cellular powerplants, are essential to eukaryotic life and have evolved from free-living bacteria. Using molecular biology, this thesis has deepened our understanding of the evolution of mitochondrial division through the study of two, key bacterially-derived proteins in the slime mold, dictyostelium.
