Characterization of two novel proteins involved in mitochondrial DNA anchoring in Trypanosoma brucei In the current study that was led by Simona Amodeo, Irina Bregy and Anneliese Hoffmann from the Ochsenreiter lab, we identify and characterize two novel components of a distinct complex involved mitochondrial genome segregation. As very often in science this was a team effort that also involved our collaborators Benoit Zuber from the Anatomy in Bern and Falk Butter from the IMB in Mainz, Germany.
