rRNA processing in the mitochondrion
Click the image above or here to open this pathway in the Pathway Browser
Mitochondrial ribosomes contain 16S rRNA (large subunit) and 12S rRNA (small subunit) that are encoded in the mitochondrial genome and produced by processing of a long H strand transcript (reviewed in Van Haute et al. 2015). Enzymes encoded in the nucleus and acting in the mitochondrial matrix modify 5 nucleotides in the 12S RNA and 4 nucleotides in the 16S rRNA (reviewed in Van Haute et al. 2015).
