Secondary structures of three mitochondrial mRNAs. RNA SHAPE chemistry was used to analyze the structures of the 5′ ends of the mitochondrial mRNAs and indicated that most are largely unstructured [26]. The secondary structures of the NADH dehydrogenase subunits 3 (MTND3) and 5 (MTND5) mRNAs, as well as the cytochrome b (CytB) mRNA are shown. The free energy values for each stem-loop structure are indicated adjacent to the stem-loop.
