G-Quadruplex Dynamics Contribute To Regulation Of Mitochondrial Gene Expression [PDF]
Single-stranded DNA or RNA sequences rich in guanine (G) can adopt non-canonical structures known as G-quadruplexes (G4). Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences that are predicted to form G4 are enriched on the heavy-strand and have been associated with ...

Complete mitochondrial genomes of two marine monogonont rotifer Brachionus manjavacas strains
The complete mitochondrial genomes of Brachionus manjavacas German strain were 10,721 bp (mitochondrial DNA I) and 12,274 bp (mitochondrial DNA II) in size, while the complete mitochondrial genomes of B.

Modeling Mito-nuclear Compatibility and its Role in Species Identification [PDF]
Mitochondrial genetic material is widely used for phylogenetic reconstruction and as a barcode for species identification. Here we study how mito-nuclear interactions affect the accuracy of species identification by mtDNA, as well as the speciation process itself.

The accumulation of mitochondrial DNA mutations has been proposed as a potential mechanism in the physiological processes of ageing and age-related disease. Although mitochondria have long been anticipated as a perpetrator of ageing, there was little experimental evidence to link these changes directly with the cellular pathology of ageing.

A transient inflammatory response contributes to oxaliplatin neurotoxicity in mice
Abstract Objectives Peripheral neuropathy is a relevant dose‐limiting adverse event that can affect up to 90% of oncologic patients with colorectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin treatment. The severity of neurotoxicity often leads to dose reduction or even premature cessation of chemotherapy.

Expression of catalytic mutants of the mtDNA helicase Twinkle and polymerase POLG causes distinct replication stalling phenotypes. [PDF]
The mechanism of mitochondrial DNA replication is a subject of intense debate. One model proposes a strand-asynchronous replication in which both strands of the circular genome are replicated semi-independently while the other model proposes both a ...

Plants possess mitochondrial genomes that are large and complex compared to animals. Nearly all animal mitochondrial genomes are about 16.5. kbp in length, whereas plant mitochondrial genomes range between 200-2,000 kbp. This is curious if we assume modern mitochondria originated from a common alpha-proteobacterial ancestor.

Mitochondrial DNA in Sepsis [PDF]
Purpose of review Our understanding of critical illness is transforming as we develop a better understanding of the impact pathogen-associated molecular patterns and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) have on the pathogenesis of disease. Of the known DAMPs, there is a growing interest in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) as a

Archaic mitochondrial DNA inserts in modern day nuclear genomes
Traces of interbreeding of Neanderthals and Denisovans with modern humans in the form of archaic DNA have been detected in the genomes of present-day human populations outside sub-Saharan Africa.
