Published: July 1989

Using specific probes we show that sequences homologous to NADH dehydrogenase Subunit 6, and Cytochrome oxidase Subunits I, II, and III mitochondrial genes are present in nuclear DNA from various tissues. These mitochondrial-like sequences are also present in rat hepatoma nuclear DNA but with an abnormal organization and a higher copy number than in normal hepatocytes.
