Numerous rRNA molecules form the apicomplexan mitoribosome via repurposed protein and RNA elements

Abstract Mitochondrial ribosomes (mitoribosomes) are essential, and their function of synthesising mitochondrial proteins is universal. The core of almost all mitoribosomes is formed from a small number of long and self-folding rRNA molecules. In contrast, the mitoribosome of the apicomplexan parasi...
