Mitochondrial DNA maintenance in yeast requires a protein containing a region related to the GTP-binding domain of dynamin.

Genes & development - 1 Mar 1992

Jones B A, Fangman W L

Abstract excerpt

Nuclear gene products replicate and partition mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) molecules in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, few of the relevant genes have been identified. A mutation that results in temperature-sensitive loss of mtDNA identifies one of these genes, MGM1. Deletion of MGM1 shows that aside from its role in the mitochondrion, the gene has no essential cellular function. The MGM1 protein has a...
