Oxidative phosphorylation is a central mechanism of ATP synthesis that in Eukaryota occurs compartmentalized in the mitochondria. These organelles of endosymbiotic origin have their own DNA, called mtDNA, which replicates independently of the cell cycle and is packaged with proteins, forming spheroid granules physically associated with the inner membrane called nucleoids. mtDNA encodes fe…
