In most vertebrate mitochondrial genomes, the site for initiation of light-strand replication,
OL, is found within a cluster of five transfer RNA (tRNA) genes (tRNA (Trp), tRNA (Ala), tRNA …

We sequenced 6,478 by of mitochondrial DNA from Peking duck (Anas platyrhyncos). Eight
protein genes, 11 tRNAs, part of the small and large ribosomal subunits, and the control …

The H-strand of vertebrate mitochondrial DNA is left single-stranded for hours during the
slow DNA replication. This facilitates C→ U mutations on the H-strand (and consequently …

Amplification and sequencing of mitochondrial DNA regions corresponding to three major
clusters of transfer RNA genes from a variety of species representing major groups of birds …

We have determined the primary structure of the two regions of the Xenopus laevis
mitochondrial genome which encompass the origins of heavy (H) and light (L) strand …

Animal mitochondrial genomes usually have two transfer RNAs for leucine: one, with
anticodon UAG, translates the four-codon family CUN, while the other, with anticodon UAA …

The nucleotide sequences of the mitochondrial origin of light-strand replication and the five
tRNA genes surrounding it were determined for three marsupials. The region was found to …

This paper reports the nucleotide sequence of rat mitochondrial DNA, only the fourth
mammalian mitochondrial genome to be completely sequenced. Extensive comparative …

The sequence of the 16,019 nucleotide-pair mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) molecule of
Drosophila yakuba is presented. This molecule contains the genes for two rRNAs, 22 tRNAs …

Segments of the Japanese quail mito-chondrial genome encompassing many tRNA and
protein genes, the small and part of the large rRNA genes, and the control region have been …
