Mitochondrial Fostering: The Mitochondrial Genome May Play a Role in Plant Orphan Gene Evolution
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Plant mitochondrial genomes exhibit unique evolutionary patterns. They have a high rearrangement but low mutation rate, and a large size. Based on massive mitochondrial DNA transfers to the nucleus as well as the mitochondrial unique evolutionary traits,

Editing the Mitochondrial Genome
New England Journal of Medicine, 2020 Mending Mitochondrial Mutation For most patients with mitochondrial disorders, most of which are caused by mutations in genes in the mitochondrial genome, only symptomatic treatment is available.

Mitochondrial helicases and mitochondrial genome maintenance [PDF]
Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, 2010 Helicases are essential enzymes that utilize the energy of nucleotide hydrolysis to drive unwinding of nucleic acid duplexes. Helicases play roles in all aspects of DNA metabolism including DNA repair, DNA replication and transcription. The subcellular locations and functions of several helicases have been studied in detail; however, the roles of ...

Nature Communications, 2016 The post-transcriptional 5-methylcytosine (m5C) modification occurs in a wide range of nuclear-encoded RNAs. Here the authors identify the mitochondrial tRNA-Met as a target for the m5C methyltransferase NSun3—found mutated in a mitochondrial disease ...

The Oxytricha trifallax Mitochondrial Genome [PDF]
Genome Biology and Evolution, 2011 The Oxytricha trifallax mitochondrial genome contains the largest sequenced ciliate mitochondrial chromosome (~70 kb) plus a ~5-kb linear plasmid bearing mitochondrial telomeres. We identify two new ciliate split genes (rps3 and nad2) as well as four new mitochondrial genes (ribosomal small subunit protein genes: rps- 2, 7, 8, 10), previously ...

The Insights into Mitochondrial Genomes of Sunflowers [PDF]
Plants, 2021 The significant difference in the mtDNA size and structure with simultaneous slow evolving genes makes the mitochondrial genome paradoxical among all three DNA carriers in the plant cell. Such features make mitochondrial genome investigations of particular interest.
