What you can do: Search for comprehensive information on nuclear genes encoding proteins involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and function.
Highlights:
  • This database is dedicated to the nuclear genes specifying the enzymes, structural proteins, and other proteins, many still not identified, involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and function.
  • MitoDat highlights predominantly human nuclear-encoded mitochondrion proteins, as well as proteins from other animals in addition to those currently known only from yeast and other fungal mitochondria, as well as from plant mitochondria.
  • The database consolidates information from various biological databases, eg., GenBank, SwissPro, Genome Data Base (GDB), Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM).
  • In addition to the free Web access, users can download the database.
Keywords:
  • mitochondrial biogenesis
  • nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins
  • human nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins
  • plant mitochondrial proteins
