Abstract
Isolated rat liver mitochondria have been shown to synthesize RNA which has an electrophoretic mobility of "21S" and "12S" on agarose-acrylamide gels. The synthesis of these RNA species was inhibited by ethidium bromide. From these observations it is suggested that mammalian mitochondrial DNA codes for mitochondrial ribosomal-type RNA.
