Why Mitochondria Must Fuse to Maintain Their Genome Integrity [PDF]
The maintenance of mitochondrial genome integrity is a major challenge for cells to sustain energy production by respiration.Recently, mitochondrial membrane dynamics emerged as a key process contributing to prevent mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) alterations. Indeed, both fundamental and clinical data suggest that disruption of mitochondrial fusion, related

A morphological view on mitochondrial protein targeting [PDF]
Mitochondrial protein targeting includes both intramitochondrial sorting of proteins encoded by the organellar genome and import and subsequent sorting of nuclear encoded precursor proteins. Only a few proteins are encoded by the mitochondrial genome and

The complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic analysis of Nerita yoldii (Gastropoda: Neritidae)
The complete mitochondrial genome of Nerita yoldii has been determined. The whole sequence was 15,719 bp in length and included 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and two ribosomal RNA genes (12S rRNA and 16S rRNA).

Plant Organelle DNA Maintenance
Plant cells contain two double membrane bound organelles, plastids and mitochondria, that contain their own genomes. There is a very large variation in the sizes of mitochondrial genomes in higher plants, while the plastid genome remains relatively ...

Apostasia Mitochondrial Genome Analysis and Monocot Mitochondria Phylogenomics
Apostasia shenzhenica belongs to the subfamily Apostasioideae and is a primitive group located at the base of the Orchidaceae phylogenetic tree. However, the A. shenzhenica mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) is still unexplored, and the phylogenetic relationships between monocots mitogenomes remain unexplored.
