Summary The organization of the mitochondrial genome in somatic hybrids and cybrids regenerated following fusion of protoplasts from cultivated tomato, Lycopersicon esculentum, and the wild species, L. Pennellii, was compared to assess the role of the nuclear genotype on the inheritance of organellar genomes. No organellar-encoded traits were required for the recorvery of either somatic hybrids or cybrids. The organization of the mitochondrial genome was characterized using Southern hybridization of restriction digestions of total DNA isolated from ten cybrids and ten somatic hybrids. A bank of cosmid clones carrying tomato mitochondrial DNA was used as probes, as well as a putative repeated sequence from L. pennellii mitchondrial DNA. The seven cosmids used to characterize the mitochondrial genomes are predicted to encompass at least 60% of the genome. The frequency of nonparental organizations of the mitochondrial genome was highest with a probe derived from a putative repeat element from the L. pennellii mitochondrial DNA. There was no difference in the average frequency of rearranged mitochondrial sequences in somatic hybrids (12%) versus cybrids (10%), although there were individual cybrids with a very high frequency of novel fragments (30%). The frequency of tomato-specific mtDNA sequences was higher in cybrids (25%) versus somatic hybrids (12%), suggesting a nuclear-cytoplasmic interaction on the inheritance of tomato mitochondrial sequences. 相似文献

The fragmented mitochondrial ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) of the green algaeChlamydomonas eugametos andChlamydomonas reinhardtii are discontinuously encoded in subgenic modules that are scrambled in order and interspersed with protein coding and tRNA
genes. The mitochondrial rRNA genes of these two algae differ, however, in both the distribution and organization of rRNA
coding information within their respective genomes. The objectives of this study were (1) to examine the phylogenetic relationships
between the mitochondrial rRNA gene sequences ofC. eugametos andC. reinhardtii and those of the conventional mitochondrial rRNA genes of the green alga,Prototheca wickerhamii, and land plants and (2) to attempt to deduce the evolutionary pathways that gave rise to the unusual mitochondrial rRNA
gene structures in the genusChlamydomonas. Although phylogenetic analysis revealed an affiliation between the mitochondrial rRNA gene sequences of the twoChlamydomonas taxa to the exclusion of all other mitochondrial rRNA gene sequences tested, no specific affiliation was noted between theChlamydomonas sequences andP. wickerhamii or land plants. Calculations of the minimal number of transpositions required to convert hypothetical ancestral rRNA gene
organizations to the arrangements observed forC. eugametos andC. reinhardtii mitochondrial rRNA genes, as well as a limited survey of the size of mitochondrial rRNAs in other members of the genus, lead
us to propose that the last common ancestor ofChlamydomonas algae contained fragmented mitochondrial rRNA genes that were nearly co-linear with conventional rRNA genes. 相似文献

N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) was earlier reported to have stimulatory effects on mitochondrial respiration and to induce
mitochondrial swelling, when it was added to mitochondrial suspensions. These data seem to imply that DCCD caused the mitochondrial
permeability transition (PT), but this possibility had never been investigated. In the present study, effects of DCCD on the
mitochondrial structure and function were studied in detail. DCCD was found to induce mitochondrial PT in a cyclosporine A-insensitive
manner. Electron microscopic analysis also supported the induction of the mitochondrial PT by DCCD. However, different from
many other PT inducers, DCCD failed to cause massive release of mitochondrial cytochrome c. To understand the relationship between the induction of mitochondrial PT and the release of mitochondrial cytochrome c, we compared the actions of DCCD on mitochondrial structure and function with those of Ca2+, known as an ordinary PT inducer. As a result, two parameters considered to be critical for controlling the release of mitochondrial
cytochrome c on the induction of PT were mitochondrial volume and the velocity of mitochondrial oxygen consumption. 相似文献

E. coli ribosomal DNA has been used to probe maize mitochondrial DNA. It hybridizes primarily with chloroplast ribosomal DNA sequences and with fungal and bacterial sequences which may contaminate the mtDNA preparations. It also hybridizes to the chloroplast 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequence present in the mitochondrial genome (1) as well as to the mitochondrial 18S ribosomal RNA gene sequence. Weak sequence homology was detected between E. coli rDNA and the mitochondrial 26S ribosomal RNA gene. 相似文献

Hyperglycemia induced increased posttranslational modification of proteins by O-linked-β-N-acetyl glucosamine (O-GlcNAcylation) and mitochondrial dysfunction has been independently implicated in the development of insulin resistance. It is not known whether repertoire of O-GlcNAcylated proteins includes mitochondrial proteins and their altered O-GlcNAcylation impinges on their phosphorylation mediated normal functioning thus contribute to mitochondrial dysfunction and insulin resistance. We have explored the O-GlcNAcylation of mitochondrial proteins from myoblast cells under basal (4 mM) and high glucose (30 mM) conditions using a combination of proteomic approaches. Furthermore, we have assessed the accompanied changes in the phosphorylation of mitochondrial proteins. We report that a number of mitochondrial proteins are O-GlcNAcylated under basal condition which is altered under high glucose condition. In addition, we report that exposure to high glucose not only changes the O-GlcNAcylation of mitochondrial proteins but also changes their phosphorylation profiles. The dynamic and complex interplay between O-GlcNAcylation and phosphorylation of mitochondrial proteins was further validated by immunoblot analysis of HSP60, prohibitin, and voltage-dependent anion channel 1 as candidate proteins. O-GlcNAcylation of mitochondrial proteins may play a role in normal functioning of mitochondria. High glucose induced changes in O-GlcNAcylation and phosphorylation of mitochondrial proteins may be associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and insulin resistance. 相似文献

Transglutaminase activity was found to be present in highly purified non-synaptosomal rat brain mitochondria. A 78-kDa protein
in these organelles was shown to be a transglutaminase 2 substrate, and incubation of a non-synaptosomal mitochondrial lysate
with transglutaminase 2 yielded high-Mr proteins. The 78-kDa protein was identified as mitochondrial aconitase by MALDI-TOF analysis. Aconitase activity was decreased
in a dose-dependent manner when non-synaptosomal rat brain mitochondria were incubated with transglutaminase 2. Transglutaminase
activity is increased about 2-fold in the mitochondrial fraction of HD caudate. Moreover, Western blotting of the mitochondrial
fraction revealed that most of the mitochondrial aconitase in HD caudate is present as high-Mr aggregates. Aconitase activity was previously shown to be decreased in Huntington disease (HD) caudate (a region severely
damaged by the disease). The present findings suggest that an increase of transglutaminase activity in HD caudate may contribute
to mitochondrial dysfunction by incorporating aconitase into inactive polymers. 相似文献

To study mitochondrial protein age dynamics, we targeted a time-sensitive fluorescent protein, MitoTimer, to the mitochondrial matrix. Mitochondrial age was revealed by the integrated portions of young (green) and old (red) MitoTimer protein. Mitochondrial protein age was dependent on turnover rates as pulsed synthesis, decreased import, or autophagic inhibition all increased the proportion of aged MitoTimer protein. Mitochondrial fusion promotes the distribution of young mitochondrial protein across the mitochondrial network as cells lacking essential fusion genes Mfn1 and Mfn2 displayed increased heterogeneity in mitochondrial protein age. Experiments in hippocampal neurons illustrate that the distribution of older and younger mitochondrial protein within the cell is determined by subcellular spatial organization and compartmentalization of mitochondria into neurites and soma. This effect was altered by overexpression of mitochondrial transport protein, RHOT1/MIRO1. Collectively our data show that distribution of young and old protein in the mitochondrial network is dependent on turnover, fusion, and transport. 相似文献

Physical mapping of the mitochondrial DNA of the wild-typeSaccharomyces cerevisiae strainRXII revealed that most of the restriction sites as well as the location of the apocytochromeb gene were identical in comparison with the known maps of the mitochondrial genome in otherSaccharomyces cerevisiae strains. In the middle of theSalI linearized map of theRXII mitochondrial DNA, a deletion was detected which resulted in the loss of twoEcoRI and oneBamHI restriction sites. The corresponding region, however, exists in most other laboratory strains ofSaccharomyces mapped so far. This region overlaps the introns aI2 and aI3 surrounding exon A3 sequences of the subunit 1 of the cytochrome
oxidase gene. The nucleotide sequence of the subunit 1 gene showed that theBamHI site was located close to the aI3-A4 intron-exon junction and the distalEcoRI site close to the aI2-A2 boundary. I therefore conclude that these two introns are deleted in the mitochondrial genome
of strainRXII. The exon A3 must have been conserved since this strain was respiratory competent. This result, while being a good example
of the morphological diversity of a genome with the same function, may contribute to an understanding of the role of introns
in the mitochondrial split genes in yeast. 相似文献

Analysis of synonymous codon usage patterns in different plant mitochondrial genomes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Codon usage in mitochondrial genome of the six different plants was analyzed to find general patterns of codon usage in plant
mitochondrial genomes. The neutrality analysis indicated that the codon usage patterns of mitochondrial genes were more conserved
in GC content and no correlation between GC12 and GC3. T and A ending codons were detected as the preferred codons in plant
mitochondrial genomes. The Parity Rule 2 plot analysis showed that T was used more frequently than A. The ENC-plot showed that although a majority of the points with low ENC values were lying below the expected curve, a few genes lied on the expected curve. Correspondence analysis of relative synonymous
codon usage yielded a first axis that explained only a partial amount of variation of codon usage. These findings suggest
that natural selection is likely to be playing a large role in codon usage bias in plant mitochondrial genomes, but not only
natural selection but also other several factors are likely to be involved in determining the selective constraints on codon
bias in plant mitochondrial genomes. Meantime, 1 codon (P. patens), 6 codons (Z. mays), 9 codons (T. aestivum), 15 codons (A. thaliana), 15 codons (M. polymorpha) and 15 codons (N. tabacum) were defined as the preferred codons of the six plant mitochondrial genomes. 相似文献

In this study, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome of the invasive insect species Melanoplus differentialis captured in Korea. The complete mitochondrial genome of M. differentialis is 15,625 bp long and comprises 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNAs, with a GC ratio of 25.2%. In total, 353 SNPs and 11 INDEL regions (total length 67 bp) were found against the previously sequenced M. differentialis mitochondrial genome recorded as public genome data. The number of interspecific variations was greater than the number of intraspecific variations in this insect. Phylogenetic tree analysis showed that the mitochondrial genome clustered the Melanoplus clade with two previously reported Melanoplus sequences. However, the sequences were not divided at the species-level clade possibly as a consequence of misidentification caused by an error in the public database. Our results extend the molecular database status of Melanoplus by providing a novel complete mitochondrial genome sequence for M. differentialis that could serve as reference for further molecular studies. 相似文献

The purpose of this research is to identify the probable mitochondrial factor associated with cytoplasmic male sterility (cms)
by comparative analysis of cms and its isogenic maintainer lines in stem mustards. Dramatic variations in the morphology of
floral organs were observed in cms stem mustard. Mitochondrial atpA gene was shown to be altered in cms compared with that in its maintainer line, of which mitochondrial atpA gene from its maintainer line was sequenced to encode 507 amino acids. It was indicative of high homology with mitochondrial
atpA genes from other species, even as high as 94% in similarity with Oryza sativa in terms of amino acid constituents. However, only 429 amino acids were deduced in cms showing 83% similarity with atpA gene from its maintainer line. Two copies were observed in its maintainer line, but only one was found in cms. Such numerous
differences of mitochondrial atpA gene between cms and its maintainer lines may not be the results of evolutionary divergence but the rearrangements of mitochondria.
Expression of mitochondrial atpA gene was shown to be down-regulated in cms by using Northern blot. Consequently, mitochondrial ATP synthesis was severely
decreased more than one fold in cms stem mustard indicating deficiency in mitochondrial ATP synthesis in this type of cms.
Therefore, we deduced that mitochondrial atpA gene altered in cms could be associated with male-sterility in this type of cms.

Although maternal or uniparental inheritance of mitochondrial genomes is a general rule, biparental inheritance is sometimes
observed in protists and fungi, including yeasts. In yeast, recombination occurs between the mitochondrial genomes inherited
from both parents. Mitochondrial fusion observed in yeast zygotes is thought to set up a space for DNA recombination. In the
last decade, a universal mitochondrial fusion mechanism has been uncovered, using yeast as a model. On the other hand, an
alternative mitochondrial fusion mechanism has been identified in the true slime mold Physarum polycephalum. A specific mitochondrial plasmid, mF, has been detected as the genetic material that causes mitochondrial fusion in P. polycephalum. Without mF, fusion of the mitochondria is not observed throughout the life cycle, suggesting that Physarum has no constitutive mitochondrial fusion mechanism. Conversely, mitochondria fuse in zygotes and during sporulation with
mF. The complete mF sequence suggests that one gene, ORF640, encodes a fusogen for Physarum mitochondria. Although in general, mitochondria are inherited uniparentally, biparental inheritance occurs with specific
sexual crossing in P. polycephalum. An analysis of the transmission of mitochondrial genomes has shown that recombinations between two parental mitochondrial
genomes require mitochondrial fusion, mediated by mF. Physarum is a unique organism for studying mitochondrial fusion. 相似文献

ABSTRACT. Analysis of total DNA isolated from the Chrysophyte alga Ochromonas danica revealed, in addition to nuclear DNA, two genomes present as numerous copies per cell. The larger genome (?120 kilobase pairs or kbp) is the plastid DNA, which is identified by its hybridization to plasmids containing sequences for the photosynthesis genes rbcL, psbA, and psbC. The smaller genome (40 kbp) is the mitochondrial genome as identified by its hybridization with plasmids containing gene sequences of plant cytochrome oxidase subunits I and II. Both the 120- and 40-kbp genomes contain genes for the small and large subunits of rDNA. The mitochondrial genome is linear with terminal inverted repeats of about 1.6 kbp. Two other morphologically similar species were examined, Ochromonas minuta and Poteriochromonas malhamensis. All three species have linear mitochondrial DNA of 40 kbp. Comparisons of endonuclease restriction-fragment patterns of the mitochondrial and chloroplast DNAs as well as those of their nuclear rDNA repeats failed to reveal any fragment shared by any two of the species. Likewise, no common fragment size was detected by hybridization with plasmids containing heterologous DNA or with total mitochondrial DNA of O. danica; these observations support the taxonomic assignment of these three organisms to different species. The Ochromonas mitochondrial genomes are the first identified in the chlorophyll a/c group of algae. Combining these results with electron microscopic observations of putative mitochondrial genomes reported for other chromophytes and published molecular studies of other algal groups suggests that all classes of eukaryote algae may have mitochondrial genomes < 100 kbp in size, more like other protistans than land plants. 相似文献

Abstract Organellar genomes are small, circular entities that provide unique advantages as compared to the nuclear genome. The present study was aimed at evaluating the efficiency of utilizing mitochondrial single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) approach in separating barley cultivars. Sequences generated via next-generation sequencing were further utilized to confirm the incidence of heteroplasmy in barley mitochondrial genome. The analysis involved seven cultivated barley (Hordeum vulgare subsp. vulgare) (VG) and one wild (H. vulgare subsp. spontaneum) (SP) genotypes. A total of 73 million paired-end reads per mitochondrial genomes across the eight barley genotypes were generated using Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform. Sequences of each genotype were separately aligned to the published barley mitochondrial reference genome, thus SNPs were detected. The overall results indicated the efficiency of using mitochondrial SNPs as a molecular marker in distinguishing among barley genotypes. Unique SNPs were determined in six out of the eight genotypes, where Giza131 and Giza129 had no specific mitochondrial SNPs, while Giza130 showed the largest number of unique mitochondrial SNPs. The phylogenetic tree indicated the close relationship between Giza129 and Giza130. Interestingly, SP was not clearly discriminated among genotypes. 相似文献

Synopsis Incubation of glutaraldehyde-fixed, non-frozen tissue slices of mouse seminal vesicle, ventral prostate and small intestine in the media described by Hugon & Borgers (1966) and by Mayaharaet al. (1967) for the cytochemical demonstration of alkaline phosphatase resulted in the deposition of lead along smooth muscle mitochondrial membranes but not along epithelial mitochondrial membranes. Control studies using boiled tissues; media lacking substrate; inhibitors such as L-cysteine, EDTA,N-ethyl maleimide andp-chloromercuribenzoate; and tissues incubated in full media after fixation, embedding and sectioning, showed that the reaction in muscle mitochondria was non-enzymatic. It was concluded that the phospholipid component of muscle mitochondrial membranes differed from that of epithelial mitochondrial membranes. 相似文献

A complete set of pika taxa, belonging to the subgenus Ochotona, was studied using craniometric and multilocus genetic analyses. We examined 1,007 skulls, covering the entire distribution range of the subgenus, as well as the mitochondrial COI gene and three nuclear introns in 31 specimens, representing nearly all taxa in question. An additional set of 167 COI gene sequences and 357 cytb gene sequences was analysed to enlarge the geographical extent of genetic data and to compare the results with previous publications. We found that the subgenus consists of eight species. One of them, Ochotona morosa, is elevated to the full species rank for the first time. The name of this species is given preliminarily and should be studied additionally. Several cases of interspecies hybridisation were found, which indicates that mitochondrial DNA cannot be used for species identification in this subgenus. Taxon Ochotona qionglaiensis, which was recently described as a separate species, represents a relic mitochondrial lineage of Ochotona thibetana. Another recently described species, Ochotona yarlungensis, is a Nubra pika with its native mitochondrial DNA, firstly found for this species. Intraspecies variation was analysed for several species for the first time. Thus, new subspecies (Ochotona thibetana fengii ssp. n.) was found within O. thibetana. 相似文献

Summary Mitchondrial gene recombination in S. cerevisiae was investigated using four combinations of mitochondrial markers: [oli1-r ery1-r], [oli1-r spi2-r], [oli1-r spi3-r] and [oli1-r spi4-r] in cis bifactorial crosses to [oli-s ery-s spi-s] strains. A number of sensitive strains including representatives of both mating types and of diverse origin were used. The crosses were analysed for frequency and polarity of mitochondrial gene recombination as well as the frequency of transmission into the diploid progeny of individual mitochondrial determinants.The results show that the polarity of recombination varied markedly in crosses between a single pair of mitochondrial markers and many unrelated sensitive strains. For example, one series of crosses included polarity values of 1.7,0.34,0.081, and 0.021. Furthermore, there was also considerable variability in frequency of recombination and frequency of transmission of individual markers and these frequencies were not correlated in many cases with polarity values. However, in certain other crosses involving different marker combinations there was a correlation between extreme polarity, high recombination frequency and high transmission frequency of one marker. The results are not compatible with polarity being determined by a simple mitochondrial sex factor and suggest that several different interactions are operating which might include nuclear phenomena. 相似文献
