An expressed nuclear gene (ATPA) that encodes the alpha-subunit of the human mitochondrial F0F1 ATP synthase complex was isolated from a human genomic library. The nucleotide sequence of the 5'-flanking region of this gene was determined. No typical TATA or CCAAT boxes were found in this region. The 5'-flanking region of this gene contains several sequences that are found in a number of nuclear genes that encode proteins of the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation system and which might play a role in regulating their expression. The nucleotide sequence of the 5'-flanking region of the human ATPA gene is highly homologous (overall homology approx. 70%) to the corresponding region of the bovine ATPA1 gene.

D008928 Mitochondria Semiautonomous, self-reproducing organelles that occur in the cytoplasm of all cells of most, but not all, eukaryotes. Each mitochondrion is surrounded by a double limiting membrane. The inner membrane is highly invaginated, and its projections are called cristae. Mitochondria are the sites of the reactions of oxidative phosphorylation, which result in the formation of ATP. They contain distinctive RIBOSOMES, transfer RNAs (RNA, TRANSFER); AMINO ACYL T RNA SYNTHETASES; and elongation and termination factors. Mitochondria depend upon genes within the nucleus of the cells in which they reside for many essential messenger RNAs (RNA, MESSENGER). Mitochondria are believed to have arisen from aerobic bacteria that established a symbiotic relationship with primitive protoeukaryotes.
