Three mitochondrial unassigned open reading frames of Podospora anserina represent remnants of a viral-type RNA polymerase gene

Hermanns, J. | Osiewacz, H.D.
The mitochondrial DNA of Podospora anserina is complex, consisting of a characteristic set of genes with a large number of introns and a substantial amount of sequence of unknown function and origin. In addition, as indicated by various types of reorganization, this genome is highly flexible. Here we report the identification of three unassigned mitochondrial open reading frames (ORF P', ORF Q', ORF 11) as remnants of a rearranged viral-type RNA polymerase gene. These ORFs are not transcribed and may be derived from the integration of a linear plasmid of the type recently identified in a mutant of P. anserina.
