Synchronization of cytoplasmic and transferred mitochondrial ribosomal protein gene expression in land plants is linked to <it>Telo</it>-box motif enrichment
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Chloroplasts and mitochondria evolved from the endosymbionts of once free-living eubacteria, and they transferred most of their genes to the host nuclear genome during evolution. The mechanisms used by plants to coordinate the expres...
