The mitochondrial genome encodes core subunits of the respiratory chain that drives
oxidative phosphorylation and is, therefore, essential for energy conversion. Advances in …

Given the tiny size of the mammalian mitochondrial genome, at only 16.5 kb, it is often
surprising how little we know about some of its molecular features, and the molecular …

The complete sequence of the 16,569-base pair human mitochondrial genome is presented.
The genes for the 12S and 16S rRNAs, 22 tRNAs, cytochrome c oxidase subunits I, II and III …

Phylogeography is a discipline concerned with various relationships between gene
genealogies—phylogenetics—and geography. The word “phylogeography” was coined in …

Since the elucidation of the structure of DNA it has been of central interest to determine
those events that permit faithful duplication of the genetic material of a cell. Investigators …

We present here the complete 16,338 nucleotide DNA sequence of the bovine mitochondrial
genome. This sequence is homologous to that of the human mitochondrial genome …

Mitochondrial dysfunction plays critical roles in cancer development and related therapeutic
response; however, exact molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Recently, alongside the …

Abstract Comparison of the human mitochrondrial DNA sequence of the cytochrome oxidase
subunit II gene and the sequence of the corresponding beef heart protein shows that UGA is …

Abstract Analysis of mammalian mtDNA by two-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis
revealed two classes of replication intermediate. One was resistant to single-strand …

The nucleotide sequences of the D-loop-containing regions of three rat mitochondrial DNAs
(mtDNAs), two from the species Rattus norvegicus and one from R. rattus, were determined …
