Mitochondrial biogenesis within muscle consists of two possible mutually inclusive alterations: [ 1 ] an increase in mitochondrial content per gram of tissue and/or [ 2 ] a change in mitochondrial composition, with an alteration in mitochondrial protein-to-lipid ratio (4).ne of the most fascinating aspects of mitochondrial synthesis is that it requires the cooperation of the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes (Figure-1). Mitochondria are unique in the fact that they house multiple copies of a small circular DNA molecule (mtDNA) comprising 16,659 nucleotides.
Mitochondria are unusual organelles. They act as the power plants of the cell, are surrounded by two membranes, and have their own genome. They also divide independently of the cell in which they reside, meaning mitochondrial replication is not coupled to cell division. Some of these features are holdovers from the ancient ancestors of mitochondria, which were likely free-living prokaryotes. Mitochondria are thought to have originated from an ancient symbiosis that resulted when a nucleated cell engulfed an aerobic prokaryote.
