Mitochondrial Non-Coding RNAs Are Potential Mediators of Mitochondrial Homeostasis
Mitochondria are the energy production center in cells, which regulate aerobic metabolism, calcium balance, gene expression and cell death. Their homeostasis is crucial for cell viability.

Mitochondrial Fostering: The Mitochondrial Genome May Play a Role in Plant Orphan Gene Evolution
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,

Mitochondrial helicases and mitochondrial genome maintenance [PDF]
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 ...

The Oxytricha trifallax Mitochondrial Genome [PDF]
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 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 ...
