We report the presence of a membranous tubulovesicular network in the planctomycete bacterium Gemmata obscuriglobus. This endomembrane system interacts with membrane coat proteins and is capable of protein internalization and degradation. Taken together, this suggests that the planctomycetal bacterium could illuminate the emergence of complex endomembrane systems.
我们报道了在球形芽殖菌(Gemmata obscuriglobus)这种浮霉菌门细菌中存在一种膜性小管泡网络。这种内膜系统与膜被蛋白相互作用,并且能够进行蛋白质内化和降解。综合来看,这表明浮霉菌门细菌可能为复杂内膜系统的起源提供线索。
