- Description
- In this lecture we explore the evolution of the eukaryotic cell. As we will see, much of the machinery, including actin, tubulin and ESCRT-III, has its origins in archaea. Building on this, we will see how a better understanding of archaeal cell biology, and ESCRT-III dependent membrane remodelling machinery in particular, can shed light on the structure and function of its eukaryotic counterparts, and the evolution of the eukaryotic cell division cycle.
