We show that the mitochondrial protein known as Var1 is identical with the ribosome-associated protein previously identified as a product of mitochondrial protein synthesis. Although indirect evidence suggests that Var1 is not involved in ribosome biosynthesis, a definite conclusion has to await fur
We have isolated about five hundred temperature-sensitive mutants specific for the mitochondrial functions. Their growth on glycerol is defective at 36 degrees C and/or 20 degrees C. While most of the mutations were nuclearly inherited, about thirty were found to be of mitochondrial origin. 1) Four
1. Several nuclear mutants have been isolated which showed thermo- or cryo-sensitive growth on non-fermentable media. Although the original strain carried mitochondrial drug resistance mutations (CR, ER, OR and PR), the resistance to one or several drugs was suppressed in these mutants. Two of them
Ribosomal subunits are isolated from potato tuber mitochondria devoid of contaminating organelles. The sedimentation constants of the two mitochondrial ribosomal subunits are 33S and 50S respectively. The apparent sizes of the high molecular weight RNAs are 19S and 25S. The proteins of these riboso
