Mitochondrial DNA and aging

Clinical Science, 2004
Among the numerous theories that explain the process of aging, the mitochondrial theory of aging has received the most attention. This theory states that electrons leaking from the ETC (electron transfer chain) reduce molecular oxygen to form O2•− (superoxide anion radicals).

Mitochondrial DNA in Tumors

Toxicology Mechanisms and Methods, 2004
Mitochondria, cellular powerhouses, play a central role in apoptosis. In addition, they are suspected to contribute to aging. There is also increasing evidence that abnormalities in mitochondrial function help cancer development. Changes in mitochondrial transcription and oxidative phosphorylation pathways are observed in many types of cancer.

Transcription of Mitochondrial DNA

Critical Reviews in Biochemistry, 1983
While mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is the simplest DNA in nature, coding for rRNAs and tRNAs, results of DNA sequence, and transcript analysis have demonstrated that both the synthesis and processing of mitochondrial RNAs involve remarkably intricate events.

The evolution of mitochondrial DNA

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1994
Although the massive sequencing of mitochondrial DNA from various organisms, together with studies of a different nature, has contributed enormously to the knowledge of the organization and function of this cytoplasmic genome, many issues, mainly the relationships with the nuclear genome, remain unsolved.

Mitochondrial DNA disorders

European Journal of Pediatrics, 2000
Over 100 pathogenic point mutations and 200 deletions, insertions, and rearrangements have been identified since the first mitochondrial DNA mutations were described in 1988. About 60% of the point mutations affect mitochondrial tRNAs, 35% affect polypeptide subunits of the respiratory chain, and 5% affect mitochondrial ribosomal RNAs.
