— Mitochondrial genome. The mitochondrial genome encodes 13 of the subunits of the electron transfer chain. These include 7 subunits of Complex I, 1 subunit of Complex III, 3 subunits of Complex IV and 2 subunits of ATP synthase. The mitochondrial genome encodes the core complexes for cellular respiration: 2 subunits of ATP synthase, 3 subunits of Complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase), 1 subunit of Complex III (cytochrome b), and seven subunits of complex I.
