Abstract
Editorial: Structure, Function and Evolution of Complex Cellular Organization in Bacteria and Archaea
Highlights
Specialty section: This article was submitted to Microbial Physiology and Metabolism, a section of the journal Frontiers in Microbiology
Whereas previously it has been assumed that complex cell ultrastructure was the exclusive domain of eukaryotes, it is becoming clear that all three domains bear organellar structures, complex intracellular membranes (Grant et al, 2018), and can produce extracellular vesicles (Gill et al, 2019)
This is the subject of a review by Chaikeeratisak et al The discovery of a “phage nucleus” is exciting in that it indicates there may be multiple circumstances where genetic material is compartmentalized from other parts of a cell
