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.

Modifying the Mitochondrial Genome [PDF]
Cell Metabolism, 2016 Human mitochondria produce ATP and metabolites to support development and maintain cellular homeostasis. Mitochondria harbor multiple copies of a maternally inherited, non-nuclear genome (mtDNA) that encodes for 13 subunit proteins of the respiratory chain.

The ageing mitochondrial genome [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2007 The population of elderly individuals has increased significantly over the past century and is predicted to rise even more rapidly in the future. Ageing is a major risk factor for many diseases such as neurodegenerative disease, diabetes and cancer. This highlights the importance of understanding the mechanisms involved in the ageing process.

Lophotrochozoan mitochondrial genomes [PDF]
Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2006 Progress in both molecular techniques and phylogenetic methods has challenged many of the interpretations of traditional taxonomy. One example is in the recognition of the animal superphylum Lophotrochozoa (annelids, mollusks, echiurans, platyhelminthes, brachiopods, and other phyla), although the relationships within this group and the inclusion of ...

Ultrasensitive deletion detection links mitochondrial DNA replication, disease, and aging
Genome Biology, 2020 Background Acquired human mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) deletions are symptoms and drivers of focal mitochondrial respiratory deficiency, a pathological hallmark of aging and late-onset mitochondrial disease.

The inflated mitochondrial genomes of siphonous green algae reflect processes driving expansion of noncoding DNA and proliferation of introns [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Within the siphonous green algal order Bryopsidales, the size and gene arrangement of chloroplast genomes has been examined extensively, while mitochondrial genomes have been mostly overlooked.
