High impact information on ND6
- First, it exhibits a novel gene order, the contiguous tRNA(Glu) and ND6 genes are located immediately adjacent to the displacement loop region of the molecule, just ahead of the contiguous tRNA(Pro), tRNA(Thr) and cytochrome b genes, which border the displacement loop region in other vertebrate mitochondrial genomes [1].
