Mitochondria have been tentatively accepted as a symbiotic addition
(Lynn Margulis, etc.) in eukaryotic cells. Specific localization of
mitochondria within a eukaryotic cell is near microtubules.
My question:
Has there been any research on an location mechanism for localization?
For instance, are there mitochondria membrane-surface receptors or a
"chemotaxic-like" system for recognition and/or attachment to the
microtubulin, (est. the flagellar axoneme) or vice versa?
