This is some really cool natural history, but I don’t like the spin that Science is putting on it. I don’t see any reason to think it’s evolving into a virus and the one outside researcher that they spoke to was dubious as well.

ICYMI: New Online! Molecular machineries shaping the mitochondrial inner membrane
Molecular machineries shaping the mitochondrial inner membrane
Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, Published online: 14 May 2025; doi:10.1038/s41580-025-00854-zThe inner mitochondrial membrane forms cristae, which are crucial for mitochondrial function. This Review explores the protein complexes that regulate cristae dynamics, including remodelling and fusion, and discusses recent structural insights that have increased our understanding of mitochondrial architecture.
