The contents of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and the steady-state amounts of 12 and 16 S
mitochondrial rRNAs and the mRNAs for cytochrome c oxidase subunits I and II (COI and …

The role of the mitochondrial genome in early development and differentiation was studied
in mouse embryos cultured in vitro from the two to four cell stage to the blastocyst (about 100 …

The number of mitochondria stored in the 1-cell mouse egg was determined by electron
microscopic morphometry. In the four eggs examined, the average mitochondrial number …

Restriction endonuclease analysis and direct nucleotide sequencing of bovine
mitochondrial DNA have revealed a high apparent rate of sequence divergence between …

The unfertilized egg ofXenopus laevis contains 10 μg of mitochondrial protein and a
cytochrome oxidase activity of 0.03 μatom oxygen/min/egg. During embryogenesis these …

Inheritance of the mitochondrial genome is known to be exclusively maternal. To determine
whether the loss of paternal mitochondria could be due to a deficiency of RNA in the …

The effect of selective inhibition of cytoplasmic or mitochondrial protein synthesis by
cycloheximide or chloramphenicol, respectively, upon mitochondrial DNA and RNA …

The fraction of mitochondrial DNA which is complementary to mitochondria-associated RNA
in exponentially growing HeLa cells has been investigated by RNA-DNA hybridization …

To evaluate whether the absence or modification of paternal mitochondrial DNA or
methylation of the oocyte mitochondrial DNA could be the molecular basis for maternal …

Nine transcripts complementary to mouse L cell mitochondrial DNA have been detected,
sized and mapped to restriction fragments using the method of Berk and Sharp (1977). RNA …
