  • Title: Genetic analysis of mitochondrial biogenesis and function in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
    Author: Michaelis G, Somlo M.
    Journal: J Bioenerg; 1976 Apr; 8(2):93-107. PubMed ID: 134034.
    Abstract:
    Different mitochondrial mutants have been isolated that affect mitochondrial ribosome function. These mutants were used to establish most of the known methods and principles of mitochondrial genetics in yeast. Another class of mitochondrial mutants have been shown to affect mitochondrial ATPase and, more specifically, the "membrane factor" of mitochondrial ATPase. These mutants might be very useful in studying the energy-conserving function, and the interaction between the hydrophobic and hydrophylic parts, of the ATPase complex. New types of mitochondrial point mutations, concerning cytochrome a-a3 or b, will soon open up new fields of investigation. The biochemical and genetic analysis of numerous mutants belonging to that category and recently obtained [31] is being currently pursued in Tzagoloff's and Slonimski's laboratories.
