Structure–Function Analysis Reveals the Singularity of Plant Mitochondrial DNA Replication Components: A Mosaic and Redundant System

open access: yesPlants, 2019
Plants are sessile organisms, and their DNA is particularly exposed to damaging agents. The integrity of plant mitochondrial and plastid genomes is necessary for cell survival.

A new method for long-read sequencing of animal mitochondrial genomes: application to the identification of equine mitochondrial DNA variants

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2020
Background Mitochondrial DNA is remarkably polymorphic. This is why animal geneticists survey mitochondrial genomes variations for fundamental and applied purposes.

Mitochondrial heat shock protein 70, a molecular chaperone for proteins encoded by mitochondrial DNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Mitochondrial heat shock protein 70 (mt-Hsp70) has been shown to play an important role in facilitating import into, as well as folding and assembly of nuclear-encoded proteins in the mitochondrial matrix.

A Monomer-to-Trimer Transition of the Human Mitochondrial Transcription Termination Factor (mTERF) Is Associated with a Loss of in Vitro Activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The human mitochondrial transcription termination factor (mTERF) is a nuclear-encoded 39-kDa protein that recognizes a mtDNA segment within the mitochondrial tRNALeu(UUR) gene immediately adjacent to and downstream of the 16 S rRNA gene. Binding of mTERF

Commentary of "The Use of Mitochondrial Replacement in IVF: A Call for Expansion"

open access: yesVoices in Bioethics, 2014
by Lillian Ringel • Briana’s op-ed calling for expansion of mitochondrial DNA replacement in IVF was an interesting read.  She starts her op-ed with a description of what mitochondrial DNA is, and though it may seem rudimentary to some, since I have a

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Cytoplasmic DNA in the unfertilized sea urchin egg: Physical properties of circular mitochondrial DNA and the occurrence of catenated forms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1968
The mitochondrial DNA in the unfertilized egg of the sea urchin Lytechinus pictus is present in an amount approximately seven times that of the haploid nuclear DNA.(1) The mitochondrial DNA has a higher buoyant density than the nuclear DNA and consists ...
