Transcription and organization of yeast mitochondrial DNA

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7148023
; ; ; ; ; ;
Some topics discussed are as follows: restriction endonuclease mapping of mtDNA; analysis of the structure of mtDNA mutants; electron microscopy of yeast DNA; and mitochondrial RNA-DNA hybridization. It was shown that yeast mtDNA probably transcribe tRNAs for all amino acids and for several isoaccepting tRNA species, as well as messenger RNA for the three largest peptides of cytochrome oxidase. Data indicate that at least 50 to 60 percent of one mitochondrial genome is transcribed, and they suggest that symmetrical transcription may occur. (HLW)
