The mitochondrial RNA polymerase is made up of _____________(a) 1 subunit(b) 2 subunits(c) 3 subunits(d) multiple subunitsI got this question during a job interview.My question is based upon Mitochondrial Structure and Function in section Mitochondrial Structure and Function of Cell Biology

Answer»

Right choice is (a) 1 subunit

The explanation is: Mitochondrial RNA polymerase helps in the synthesis of proteins from mitochondrial RNA. The mitochondrial RNA polymerase is unlike the multi-subunit RNA polymerase enzyme of prokaryotic and EUKARYOTIC cell and CONTAINS only a single subunit SIMILAR to CERTAIN bacterial VIRUSES.
