Journal ArticleDOI
The petite mutation in yeast. Loss of mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid during induction of petites with ethidium bromide.
TL;DR: The mechanism of this conversion in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is investigated by examining the properties of mitochondrial DNA at various times during the mutation process, using cycloheximide to amplify the proportion of radioactivity in mitochondrial DNA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of carbon source on the replication and transmission of yeast mitochondrial genomes.
TL;DR: It is proposed that the two to three fold difference in the ratio of mitochondrial DNA to nuclear DNA in stationary phase cells grown in the presence of glycerol compared to glucose reflects an increased number of mitochondrial genomes in derepressed mitochondria.
Journal ArticleDOI
The petite mutation in yeast. III. Nearest-neighbor analysis of mitochondrial DNA from normal and mutant cells
TL;DR: Nearest-neighbor analysis on RNA products formed in the DNA-dependent RNA polymerase system were carried out on mitochondrial DNA of four strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, showing that dinucleotides containing A or U with G or C were present less frequently than expected for a random distribution.
