PPT-Evolution of Mitochondrial Genome Architecture in Nematodes

Sita Ping Department of Zoology Mentor Dr Dee Denver HHMI Summer 2010 Background Mitochondria organelle in eukaryotic cells that is responsible for energy production Electron transport chain located in the inner membrane of Mitochondria produces usable energy and in doing so gives off reactive oxygen species ROS.

Mitochondrial DNA Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is DNA contained in the mitochondria in our cells - these are the energy - generating structures commonly referred to as the 'batteries' or 'powerhouses' [22].
