Mitochondrial gene expression has been investigated in synaptic endings from rat cerebral cortex isolated at various stages during the postnatal development and maturation of the animal. The pattern of the mitochondrial translation products labeled in vitro in rat brain synaptosomes revealed some distinctive features when compared with the pattern observed in a rat fibroblast cell line, the mos...

A partial sequence of the mtDNA ND5 gene region was used for population study in Persian sturgeon (west and east areas of southern Caspian Sea). The result showed that although this approach was informative for phylogenetic study in sturgeon, it was less informative for population study in Persian sturgeon.

Mitochondrial protein-coding genes (mt genes) encode subunits forming complexes of crucial cellular pathways, including those involved in the vital process of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Despite the vital role of the mitochondrial genome (mt genome) in the survival of organisms, little is known with respect to its adaptive implications within marine invertebrates. The molluscan Class Ce...

In this study NADH dehydrogenase subunit 5 (mitochondrion) protein has been used to investigate its role in antigenicity. NADH dehydrogenase subunit 5 (mitochondrion) protein is an active protein in mitochondria and it is a part of a large enzyme complex known as complex I. Complex I play an important role in oxidative phosphorylation. The NADH dehydrogenase complex (or mitochondrial respirator...
