Mitochondrial DNA
Mitochondrial DNA. Computer artwork of the genetic material (DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid) found in the cell structures called mitochondria. Mitochondrial DNA is circular in shape, more like a bacterial plasmid than the spiral shape of human DNA. It has the four nucleotide bases common to all DNA, and these bases (coloured) pair up to hold the strands together. Mitochondria drive the metabolism of a cell, allowing the reactions that provide energy for the cell. Because they have their own DNA, it is thought that they were once independent micro- organisms that were incorporated into cells in the early evolution of life. Most mitochondrial DNA is inherited from the mother

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of Mitochondrial DNA, the genetic material found within mitochondria - essential cell structures. In this computer artwork, we witness the circular shape of mitochondrial DNA, resembling a bacterial plasmid rather than the familiar spiral structure of human DNA. The four nucleotide bases that form the foundation of all DNA are vividly displayed in vibrant colors, interlocking to hold the strands together. Mitochondria play a vital role in driving cellular metabolism and facilitating energy production for cells. Fascinatingly, their possession of independent DNA suggests they were once autonomous micro-organisms that became incorporated into cells during early stages of life's evolution. Remarkably, most mitochondrial DNA is inherited exclusively from mothers. This visually stunning illustration not only highlights the structural beauty and complexity inherent in biology but also emphasizes how genetics intertwine with our existence. It serves as a reminder that our very being is intricately connected to past generations through hereditary information encoded within these molecular building blocks. Crafted by Science Photo Library's talented artists using advanced computer techniques, this image provides an insightful glimpse into molecular biology and biochemistry while celebrating both scientific discovery and artistic expression.
