Abstract

Symbiogenesis overshadows the importance of other eukaryogenetic processes. By working on the endosymbiotic cellular heredity in its entirety, it transformed the eukaryotic world. This mini-review strived to produce a concise account of symbiogenetic heredity of membranes in eukaryotes. Symbiogenesis integrated the endosymbiotic alpha-proteobacterium and cyanobacterium with the host, by utilising almost all the major prokaryotic components of membranes and protein translocation machinery along with a lot of eukaryotic inventions. It beautifully compartmentalized the eukaryotic cell by putting the prokaryotic membranes in continuity with the eukaryotic membranes and produced a whole spectrum of membrane topologies. Topogenesis of symbiogenetic hereditary membranes produced cell organelles with a diversity of metabolic capabilities. Development of protein translocation system manifests real ingenuity of symbiogenetic processes which integrates the working of entire compliment of cellular organelles. Protein translocation systems are also chimera of prokaryotic and eukaryotic components
