Mitochondrial genome diversity: evolution of the molecular architecture and replication strategy.
Current genetics - 1 Nov 2003
Nosek Jozef, Tomáska Lubomír
Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial genomes in organisms from diverse phylogenetic groups vary in both size and molecular form. Although the types of mitochondrial genome appear very dissimilar, several lines of evidence argue that they do not differ radically. This would imply that interconversion between different types of mitochondrial genome might have occurred via relatively simple mechanisms. We exemplify this scenario on...
