Biogenesis of Mitochondria

The Biogenesis of Mitochondria: Transcriptional, Translational and Genetic Aspects covers the symposium, ''Biogenesis of Mitochondria'', held in Rosa Marina near Bari, Italy in June 1973. Organized into three parts, this book first discusses the mechanism, products, and role of mitochondrial DNA in mitochondrial transcription, including the genetic aspects of the process. Subsequent parts elucidate the characteristics of the mitochondrial protein synthetic machinery, as well as the synthesis of mitochondrial proteins.
