An overview of transcription in dinoflagellates

Zaheri, Bahareh | Morse, David
Dinoflagellates are a vital diverse family of unicellular algae widespread in various aquatic environments. Typically large genomes and permanently condensed chromosomes without histones make these organisms unique among eukaryotes in terms of chromatin structure and gene expression. Genomic and transcriptomic sequencing projects have provided new insight into the genetic foundation of dinoflagellate behaviors. Genes in tandem arrays, trans-splicing of mRNAs and lower levels of transcriptional regulation compared to other eukaryotes all contribute to the differences seen. Here we present a general overview of transcription in dinoflagellates based on previously described work.
