A Novel Closed-Circular Mitochondrial DNA with Properties of a Replicating Intermediate

Abstract

A fraction of the covalently closed mitochondrial DNA in mouse L cells contains a replicated heavy-strand segment that is hydrogen bonded to the circular light strand. The inserted single strand is dissociable from the circular duplex at an elevated temperature.
