Eukaryotic cells possess organella, which are essential for the maintenance of their biological function. By the extensive studies, many new findings on the origin, reaction mechanism and interaction of energy transducing mitochondria and plastid, which are indispensable for the survival of the cells, have been reported. Recent study revealed the unique mitochondria of parasites, which adapt to the anaerobic environment in the host as well as the parasites without mitochondria. However, information on the process of their establishment, details of their physiological functions, interaction between the organella is limited.The aim of this research project is to answer these questions and establish a base of our understanding the diversity of energy transduction in the novel organella, dynamic interaction between the organella and their evolution. In this study, by focusing on parasitic protozoas such as malaria parasite, we have found novel properties of parasite organella, which bring a new insight organella biology.

真核细胞拥有细胞器，这对于维持其生物功能至关重要。通过广泛的研究，关于细胞生存所不可缺少的能量转导线粒体和质体的起源、反应机制和相互作用，已报道了许多新的发现。最近的研究揭示了寄生虫独特的线粒体，它能够适应宿主的厌氧环境，以及没有线粒体的寄生虫。然而，关于它们的建立过程、生理功能细节、细胞器之间相互作用的信息是有限的。本研究项目的目的是回答这些问题，并为我们理解新型细胞器中能量转换的多样性奠定基础。 ，细胞器及其进化之间的动态相互作用。在这项研究中，通过关注疟疾寄生虫等寄生原生动物，我们发现了寄生虫细胞器的新特性，这为细胞器生物学带来了新的见解。
