Abstract

An amoeba named Paulinella harbours ‘chromatophores’, cyanobacterium-derived photosynthetic bodies that evolved independent of plastids. Proteomics has shown that hundreds of nucleus-encoded proteins are targeted to the chromatophore, revealing the host cell's contributions to its recently established organelle.
