Physical and functional mapping of rat-liver mitochondrial DNA.
Rat-liver mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) contains 2 cleavage sites of the restriction endonuclease Xbal. The molecular sizes of restriction fragments are 6.6 X 10(6) and 3.7 X 10(6) D. The results of partial cleavage of mtDNA with EcoRI allow the fragment F (0.32 X 10(6) D) to be localized in the sequence ABCEGFHDA. The functional map of mtDNA is constructed for two genes of the ATP-ase mRNAs from rat-liver mitochondria. Molecular hybridization shows that the ATPase genes are located in fragment B and in the GEHD area of mtDNA EcoRI cleavage.
