Both mitochondria and chloroplast have their own DNA, which by then was known to contain the hereditary material of organisms. Mitochondrial DNA has a simple circular structure, which is ...

This structure is so important because it is the ... molecules and smaller cells — and scientists believe that mitochondria and chloroplasts arose as a result of this process.

Scientists in the laboratory of Navdeep Chandel, Ph.D., the David W. Cugell, MD, Professor of Medicine in the Division of ...

Most of us remember two things from high school biology: that mitochondria are the powerhouses of cells and that we inherit stable sets of chromosomes from our two parents. Both truisms are only ...

These decreases would be expected to impair the structure and dynamics of the mitochondria. To explore the effect of these transformations on the mitochondrial structure, the team used a serial ...
