Implication of bidirectional promoters containing duplicated GGAA motifs of mitochondrial function-associated genes

Mitochondria are well known as the primary required organelle in all eukaryotic cells. They have their own mtDNA containing genes that encode tRNAs, rRNAs and a set of functional proteins required for energy (ATP) production. However, almost all (99%) of mitochondrial proteins are encoded by host nu...
