Document Summary

Infolding of plasma membrane to increase surface area without increasing volume. Enables evolution of membrane-bound structures inside the cell. Ancestor of all eukaryotes lost the prokaryotic cell walls. Single origin from a proteobacteria at the base of the eukaryotic clade. Site of atp production; also involved in many other cellular processes (e. g. growth, signaling, programmed cell death) A single primary event resulting from endosymbiosis of a cyanobacterium and a eukaryote was the origin of all chloroplasts. Many lineages have chloroplasts from eukaryotic symbionts (secondary or higher order endosymbiosis) Tertiary and quaternary events have occurred as well. Ancestor of all other chloroplasts in the tree. Eventually some photosynthetic cells live inside the hosts cells = Chloroplasts evolved from ancient photosynthetic bacteria or photosynthetic eukaryotes. Revived and investigated by lynn margulis in the 1960-70s. Was once thought to be a strange idea. Made of monomers that can rapidly polymerize and depolymerize.
