Abstract
In a previous publication it was shown that the output of yeast mitochondrial loci lacking nearby intergenic sequences (encompassing ori/rep elements) was reduced in crosses to strains with wild-type mtDNAs. In the present work, mitochondrial genomes carrying the intergenic deletions were marked at unlinked loci by introducing specific antibiotic resistance mutations against erythromycin, oligomycin and paromomycin. These marked genomes were used to follow the output of unlinked regions of the genome from crosses between the intergenic deletion mutants and wild-type strains. Transmission of genetically unlinked markers in coding regions was substantially reduced when an intergenic deletion was present on the same genome. In general the transmission of the antibiotic markers was the same as or slightly higher than the corresponding intergenic marker. These results indicate that the presence of an intergenic deletion in the regions studied impairs the transmission to progeny of a mitochondrial genome as a whole. More specifically, the results suggest that ori/rep sequences, present in the regions that have been deleted, confer a competitive advantage over genomes lacking a full complement of such sequences. These results support the hypothesis that intergenic sequences, and specifically ori/rep elements, have a biological role in the mitochondrial genome. However, because of the exclusive presence of ori/rep sequences in the genus Saccharomyces, it may be that these sequences evolved in (or invaded) the mitochondrial genome relatively late in the evolution of the yeasts.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
For the transformation of the yeast Hansenula polymorpha we have constructed a set of hybrid plasmids carrying the LEU2 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a selective marker and fragments of mitochondrial DNA of Candida utilis and H. polymorpha or chromosomal DNA fragments of H. polymorpha as replicator sequences. The replication properties of chimeric plasmids in the yeast H. polymorpha were investigated. We showed that for plasmids propagated autonomously in this yeast the plasmid monomers could be detected in the transformants only during the immediate time after the transformation event. Further growth under selective conditions led to the selection of polymeric forms of plasmid DNA as it was clearly shown for transformants carrying cosmid pL2 with mtDNA fragment of C. utilis. Such transformants carrying polymerized plasmids showed a remarkably increased stability of the transformed phenotype. Cosmid pL2 was able to shuttle between Escherichia coli, S. cerevisiae and H. polymorpha, whereas plasmids with DNA fragments from H. polymorpha did not transform S. cerevisiae effectively.

Abstract
The involvement of mitochondrial protein synthesis in the assembly of the mitochondrial ribosomes was investigated by studying the extent to which the assembly process can proceed in petite mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae which lack mitochondrial protein synthetic activity due to the deletion of some tRNA genes and/or one of the rRNA genes on the mtDNA. Petite strains which retain the 15-S rRNA gene can synthesize this rRNA species, but do not contain any detectable amounts of the small mitochondrial ribosomal subunit. Instead, a ribonucleoparticle with a sedimentation coefficient of 30 S (instead of 37 S) was observed. This ribonucleoparticle contained all the small ribosomal subunit proteins with the exception of the var1 and three to five other proteins, which indicates that the 30-S ribonucleoparticle is related to the small mitochondrial ribosomal subunit (37 S). Reconstitution experiments using the 30-S particle and the large mitochondrial ribosomal subunit from a wild-type yeast strain indicate that the 30-S particle is not active in translating the artificial message poly(U). The large mitochondrial ribosomal subunit was present in petite strains retaining the 21-S rRNA gene. The petite 54-S subunit is biologically active in the translation of poly(U) when reconstituted with the small subunit (37 S) from a wild-type strain. The above results indicate that mitochondrial protein synthetic activity is essential for the assembly of the mature small ribosomal subunit, but not for the large subunit. Since the var1 protein is the only mitochondrial translation product known to date to be associated with the mitochondrial ribosomes, the results suggest that this protein is essential for the assembly of the mature small subunit.

Abstract
1. We have determined the physical location of mitochondrial genetic markers in the 21S region of yeast mtDNA by genetic analysis of petite mutants whose mtDNA has been physically mapped on the wild-type mtDNA. 2. The order of loci, determined in this study, is in agreement with the order deduced from recombination analysis and coretention analysis except for the position of omega+: we conclude that omega+ is located between C321 (RIB-1) and E514 (RIB-3). 3. The marker E514 (RIB-3) has been localized on a DNA segment of 3800 bp, and the markers E354, E553 and cs23 (RIB-2) on a DNA segment of 1100 base pairs; both these segments overlap the 21S rRNA cistron. The marker C321 (RIB-1) has been localized within a segment of 240 bp which also overlaps the 21S rRNA cistron, and we infer on the basis of indirect evidence that this marker lies within this cistron. 4. In all our rho+ as well as rho- strains there is a one-to-one correlation between the omega+ phenotype, the ability to transmit the omega+ allele and the presence of a mtDNA segment of about 1000 bp long, located between sequences specifying RIB-3 and sequences corresponding to the loci RIB-1 and RIB-2. This segment may be inserted at this same position into omega- mtDNA by recombination. 5. The role which the different allelic forms of omega may play in the polarity of recombination is discussed.

Abstract
We have physically mapped the loci conferring resistance to antibiotics that inhibit mitochondrial protein synthesis (erythromycin, chloramphenicol and paromomycin) or respiration (oligomycin I and II), as well as the 21s and 14s rRNA and tRNA genes on the restriction map of the mitochondrial genome of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The mitochondrial genes were localized by hybridization of labeled RNA probes to restriction fragments of grande (strain MH41-7B) mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) generated by endonucleases EcoRI, HpaI, BamHI, HindIII, SalI, PstI and HhaI. We have derived the HhaI restriction fragment map of MH41-7B mit DNA, to be added to our previously reported maps for the six other endonucleases. The antibiotic resistance loci (antR) were mapped by hybridization of 3H-cRNA transcribed from single marker petite mtDNA's of low kinetic complexity to grande restriction fragments. We have chosen the single Sal I site as the origin of the circular physical map and have positioned the antibiotic loci as follows: C (99.5-1.Ou)--P (27-36.Ou)--OII (58.3-62u--OI (80-84u)--E (94.4-98.4u). The 21s rRNA is localized at 94.4-99.2u, and the 14s rRNA is positioned between 36.2-39.8u. The two rRNA species are separated by 36% of the genome. Total mitochondrial tRNA labeled with 125I hybridized primarily to two regions of the genome, at 99.5-11.5u and 34-44u. A third region of hybridization was occasionally detected at 70--76u, which probably corresponds to seryl and glutamyl tRNA genes, previously located to this region by petite deletion mapping.

Abstract
We have analyzed the restriction digest patterns of the mitochondrial DNA from 41 cytoplasmic petite strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, that have been extensively characterized with respect to genetic markers. Each mitochondrial DNA was digested with seven restriction endonucleases (EcoRI, HPaI, HindIII, BamHI, HhaI, SalI, and PstI) which together make 41 cuts in grande mitochondrial DNA and for which we have derived fragment maps. The petite mitochondrial DNAs were also analyzed with HpaII, HaeIII, and AluI, each of which makes more than 80 cleavages in grande mitochondrial DNA. On the basis of the restriction patterns observed (i.e., only one fragment migrating differently from grande for a single deletion, and more than one for multiple deletions) and by comparing petite and grande mitochondrial DNA restriction maps, the petite clones could be classified into two main groups: (1) petites representing a single deletion of grande mitochondrial DNA and (2) petites containing multiple deletions of the grande mitochondrial DNA resulting in rearranged sequences. Single deletion petites may retain a large portion of the grande mitochondrial genome or may be of low kinetic cimplexity. Many petites which are scored as single continuous deletions by genetic criteria were later demonstrated to be internally deleted by restriction endonuclease analysis. Heterogeneous sequences, manifested by the presence of sub-stoichiometric amounts of some restriction fragments, may accompany the single or multiple deletions. Single deletions with heterogeneous sequences remain useful for mapping if the low concentration sequences represent a subset of the stoichiometric bands. Using a group of petites which retain single continuous regions of the grande mitochondrial DNA, we have physically mapped antibiotic resistance and mit- markers to regions of the grande restriction map as follows: C (99.3--1.4 map units)--OXI-1 (2.5--15.7)--OXI-2 (18.5--25)--P (28.1--34.2)--OXI-3 (32.2--61.2--OII (60--62)--COB (64.6--80.8--0I (80.4--85.7)--E (95--98.9).

Abstract
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from petite strain K45 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains about 7% circular DNA molecules which comprise a simple oligomeric series based on a monomeric size of 1.7 kilobase pairs. Electrophoresis of K45 mtDNA on a polyacrylamide-agarose slab gel fractionates the mtDNA into a major band (containing linear DNA) and several faster running minor bands each containing particular size class of circular DNA molecules. From study of mtDNA from K45 and two other simple petites it was found that the mobility of circles is inversely proportional to the logarithm of the circle size. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis thus permits the separation of circular mtDNA from the linear mtDNA of simple petites, and physically resolves circles of different size from one another.

Abstract
1. A cell-free system, derived from Escherichia coli is highly active in the linked transcription-translation of yeast mtDNA from both wild-type and petite strains. 2. The products of synthesis are short (Mr less than 10 000) hydrophobic polypeptides, which show a high tendency to aggregate in a specific fashion with E. coli and mitochondrial proteins. Aggregation is extremely persistent: alkali, sodium dodecyl sulphate/urea, guanidinium . HCl and carboxymethylation reduce it, but do not eliminate it completely. 3. Nevertheless, results of indirect immunoprecipitation tests suggest that antigenic determinants of cytochrome c oxidase are among the products synthesized. The immunoprecipitation appears specific by criteria including competition experiments and its absence when mtDNA from low complexity petites, retaining only the gene for 21 S rRNA and some flanking sequences, is used to programme protein synthesis. Electrophoretic analysis of material precipitated by anti-cytochrome c oxidase sera reveals four discrete polypeptides with molecular weights of 7400, 6400, 5000 and 4100, which probably represent polypeptide fragments carrying antigenic determinants of cytochrome c oxidase.

Abstract
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication in petite mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is generally less sensitive to inhibition by ethidium bromide than in grande (respiratory competent) cells. In every petite that we have examined, which retain a range of different grande mtDNA sequences, this general phenomenon has been demonstrated by measurements of the loss of mtDNA from cultures grown in the presence of the drug. The resistance is also demonstrable by direct analysis of drug inhibition of mtDNA replication in isolated mitochondria. Furthermore, the resistance to ethidium bromide is accompanied, in every case tested, by cross-resistance to berenil and euflavine, although variations in the levels of resistance are observed. In one petite the level of in vivo resistance to the three drugs was very similar (4-fold over the grande parent) whilst another petite was mildly resistant to ethidium bromide and berenil (each 1.6-fold over the parent) and strongly resistant (nearly 8-fold) to inhibition of mtDNA replication by euflavine. The level of resistance to ethidium bromide in several other petite clones tested was found to vary markedly. Using genetic techniques it is possible to identify those petites which display an enhanced resistance to ethidium bromide inhibition of mtDNA replication. It is considered that the general resistance of petites arises because a product of mitochondrial protein synthesis is normally involved in facilitating the inhibitory action of these drugs on mtDNA synthesis in grande cells. The various levels of resistance in petites may be modulated by the particular mtDNA sequences retained in each petite.

Abstract
Commercial preparations of mikamycin have been shown to act as both inhibitors of mitochondrial protein synthesis and respiration. These preparations are shown to consist of two major streptogramin components (mikamycin A and mikamycin B) and a number of minor components. The major streptogramin components which inhibit mitochondrial protein synthesis in vitro are without effect in vivo due to whole cell impermeability to these compounds. A minor antimycin A-like component is the active compound in mikamycin preparations which inhibits growth of yeast cells on ethanol. The site of this inhibition is at the level of respiratory Comples III. The mitochondrial [mik 1-r] mutation confers resistance to this minor growth inhibitory component and cross resistance to antimycin A. For clarity the designation mik 1 has therefore been renamed ana 1 to denote the mitochondrial determinant conferring resistance to antimycin A. Genetic and physical mapping studies localise the ana 1 determinant in the region of mitochondrial DNA specifying cytochrome b. It is proposed that the ana 1 locus is part of a gene specifying a membrane component of Complex III.

Abstract
A comparative study of eight independently isolated mitochondrial oligomycin resistant mutants obtained from three laboratories show a variety of phenotypes based on cross resistance to venturicidin and sensitivity to low temperature. Analysis of recombination between pairs of markers indicate the existence of at least three genetic classes; class A, cross resistant to venturicidin and including the mutations OIII, [olil-r], [olgi-R], [tso-r]; class B, mutations OI, [olil7-r], [OLG2-R]; and class C, the mutation O11. The recombination data is consistent with mutations of each class residing in three separate genes, although mutations of class A and B show very close linkage. Recombination in non-polar crosses had demonstrated that markers of all three classes are linked to the mikl locus in the configuration (AB)-mikl-C. The mapping of this segment with respect to other markers of the mitochondrial genome and the order of classes A and B was established by analysis of co-retention frequenceis of markers in primary petite isolates as well as by analysis of marker overlap of genetically and physically defined petite genomes. The unambiguous order eryl-A-B-mik1-C-par was obtained. DNA-DNA hybridization studies using mtDNA isolated from selected petites confirms this map and estimates the physical separation of markers. A resonable correlation exists in this region of th genome between distances estimated physically by hybridization and genetically by frequencey of recombination in non-polar crosses. It is potulated that the oligomycin-mikamycin linkage group represents a cluster of genes involved in determing a number of mitochondrial membrane proteins associated with the mitochondrial ATPase and respiratory complex III.

Abstract
The treatment of yeast cells with high levels of ethidium bromide causes a rapid induction of respiratory deficient mutants followed by a period of recovery to respiratory competence in 60 to 70% of the cells. Prolonged exposure then results in a final irreversible phase of petite formation. Sucrose gradient sedimentation analysis of 3H-adenine labelled mtDNA indicates that limited fragmentation (to about 16-18S) occurs during the initial phase of petite induction followed by a reassembly of the fragments during the period corresponding to the recovery of respiratory competence. The reassembly is associated with an ethidium bromide insensitive incorporation of 3H-adenine into mtDNA at a level consistent with repair synthesis. Genetic analyses, based on the transmission of five markers carried on the mtDNA of "repaired rho+" clones, suggests that reassembly occurs with a high degree of fidelity, though in two of a total of twenty five clones differences in marker transmission frequency were observed which could possibly reflect an altered gene order. In addition, a description is given of the marked changes in the suppressive nature of the treated cells and the temporary reduction in the capacity for marker transmission seen to accompany the transitory fragmentation of the mtDNA. The final phase of petite induction is an energy dependent degradation of the mtDNA to produce a rho degrees culture.
