Abstract

It is known that mitochondria isolated from different plants are able to import DNA. However, all studies in the field of DNA import have been conducted using in organello system, and the confirmation of the existence of DNA import into the mitochondria in vivo seems to be an extremely important task. We have developed a method for detecting DNA import into mitochondria using Arabidopsis protoplasts. It is shown that the DNA located in the cytoplasm of the plant cell actively enters the mitochondria. The similarity of a number of import characteristics in vivo and in organello was noted.
