Mito Genome Flashcards
Outer mito membrane
Permeable to sm molecules
Impermeable large molecules, transport systems
Contains signalling receptors
Intermembrane space
Apoptotic proteins
Inner mito membrane
Transporter proteins
ETC
ATP synthesizing complex
Impermeable to small/large molecules
Mito matrix
Proteins for TCA cycle, lipid oxidation, transamination, mtDNA, mind protein synthesis machinery
What does metabolizing require to occur
Require oxygen and generate ATP
Endosymbiosis
Mito provide ATP, host does all else
Very similar replication to proks
Two genomes-13 polypeptides from mito
2 pathways to mitochondric protein production
and where do proteins go?
from nucleus, rna in cyto, precursor protein, inmported protien
organllele DNA, to rna, to organelle syn protein
Used as inner mito membrane proteins (among other things)
Mito division
Fission and fusion
Similar to bacteria
Change under different physiological conditions
Increasing by double everytime cell divides
Human mito genome
2 rRNA
22 tRNA
13 protein-coding seqs
Can have many copies of DNA
-occurs out of phase of cell cycle
Mito membrane subunits
Most subunits encoded by nuclear DNA%%%%%
mtDNA replisome
Individual mtDNA can replicate individual of cell cylcle
D loop-site of mito dna rep initiation
-also site of transcription promoters
Replication and integrity maintance-nuclear DNA
DNA poly, exonuclease/proofreading, lyase activity (enzymatic DNA repair)
Twinkle-DNA helicase, also acts as primase
DNA pol gamma
Both have mutations that lead to mito disease
tDNA genetic features
very high mutation rate
Maternal inheritance
Bottle neck
Replicative (random) segregation of mito and tDNA
threshold efect
changes with age
High mutation rate
CLose to reactive O2 species
DNA poly has proofreading errores
No introns-all mutations in coding region
Bottleneck effect
Primoridal germ cell has heteroplastic mtDNA mutation
During oogenesis, reduction in ant of mtDNA present
Random samping tells if going to have mutated mito or not mutated
Random/replicative set of mito and mtDNA
mito fusion and fission leads to random dist of mito and mtDNA
Can have mixtures of mutant and normal tDNA in same cell
(different than homoplasmy-all normal or all mutant tDNA)
