A group of mutations, known as MT-ND1 , have been identified in mitochondrial DNA . These mutations are associated with a number of debilitating diseases stemming from the production of nonfunctional proteins in the mitochondria. Which of the following cellular deficiencies would most likely be related to these MT-ND1 mutations ?

Respuesta :

Production of mitochondrion DNA  

Explanation:

  • The cell is not capable to complete reaction related to ATP production and electron transport.
  • This is because the electron transport chain and ATP production are combined with the association of protein in the inner membrane of mitochondrion DNA.
  • Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell. In all eukaryotes that don't rely upon photosynthesis, the mitochondria are the primary wellspring of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the vitality rich intensify that drives central cell capacities.
  • These capacities incorporate power age (for instance, in muscle compression and cell division), the biosynthesis, collapsing and debasement of proteins, and the generation and control of membrane possibilities.
