The biogenesis of mitochondria depends on the coordinated expression of nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. Consequently, the control of mitochondrial biogenesis and function depends on extremely complex processes requiring a variety of well orchestrated regulatory mechanisms. It is clear that the interplay of transcription factors and coactivators contributes to the expression of both nuclear and mitochondrial respiratory genes. In addition, the regulation of mitochondria biogenesis depends on proteins that, interacting with messenger RNAs for mitochondrial proteins, influence their metabolism and expression. Moreover, a tight regulation of the import and final assembly of mitochondrial protein is essential to endow mitochondria with functional complexes. These studies represent the basis for understanding the mechanisms involved in the nucleus-mitochondrion communication, a cross-talk essential for the cell.

Abstract

The biogenesis of mitochondria depends on the coordinated expression of nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. Consequently, the control of mitochondrial biogenesis and function depends on extremely complex processes requiring a variety of well orchestrated regulatory mechanisms. It is clear that the interplay of transcription factors and coactivators contributes to the expression of both nuclear and mitochondrial respiratory genes. In addition, the regulation of mitochondria biogenesis depends on proteins that, interacting with messenger RNAs for mitochondrial proteins, influence their metabolism and expression. Moreover, a tight regulation of the import and final assembly of mitochondrial protein is essential to endow mitochondria with functional complexes. These studies represent the basis for understanding the mechanisms involved in the nucleus-mitochondrion communication, a cross-talk essential for the cell.
