A linear 2.3 kb DNA molecule found in maize mitochondria was cloned into pUC8. A natural deletion of this plasmid, found in cmsT and some N (fertile) types of maize plants, was mapped to one end of the plasmid. A minor sequence homology to S-2, another linear mitochondrial plasmid, was detected, as

Mitochondrial DNA from the liver of a single Rasa Aragonesa sheep has been isolated and characterized. The size of the genome, determined by restriction enzyme analysis, was found to be 16.58 kbp. The cleavage sites for the restriction endonucleases BamHI, HindIII, EcoRI, BglII, PvuII, BstEII and Ps
The mitochondrial genome of Black Mexican Sweet maize consists of the principal genome, a 2.3 kb minilinear DNA, a 1,913 bp (1.9 kb) and a 1,445 bp (1.4 kb) minicircular DNA. The three extrachromosomal DNAs exhibit characteristics of autonomous replication in cell suspension culture. The complete se
The mtDNA of a wild-type strain of Agrocybe aegerita was purified from mitochondria isolated by cellular fractionation. A representative library was constructed in E. coli by molecular cloning at the HindIII restriction site of pBR322. Southern hybridizations between total DNA of the fungal strain a
The vertebrate mitochondrial genome is highly conserved in size and gene content. Among the chordates there appears to be one basic gene arrangement, but rearrangements in the mitochondrial gene order of the avian lineages have indicated that the mitochondrial genome may be more variable than once t
Alkane oxidation functions encoded by the Pseudomonas plasmid CAM-OCT are positively regulated by one or more products of a locus designated alkR. To characterize this locus in greater detail, molecular cloning and restriction mapping of sequences covering the alkR region have been carried out in Es
