Biological nitrogen fixation, the reduction of abundant atmospheric nitrogen gas (N<sub>2</sub>) to biologically available ammonia, is a key metabolic process performed exclusively by prokaryotes. <i>Candidatus</i> Atelocyanobacterium thalassa, or UCYN-A, is a metabolically streamlined N<sub>2</sub>-fixing cyanobacterium previously reported to be an endosymbiont of a marine unicellular alga. Here we show that UCYN-A has been tightly integrated into algal cell architecture and organellar division and that it imports proteins encoded by the algal genome. These are characteristics of organelles and show that UCYN-A has evolved beyond endosymbiosis and functions as an early evolutionary stage N<sub>2</sub>-fixing organelle, or “nitroplast.”","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Nitrogen-fixing organelle in a marine alga","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-06-14 01:32:17.631296","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2024,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2024-04-08","DateCreate":"2024-04-08","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":null,"VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1126/science.adk1075"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":391761,"PubliDate":2024,"Pagination":"217-222","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"384","Issue":"6692","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43776,"SerRR":"Science (Washington).
