The complete sequence of the 16,569 base pair human mitochondrial genome is presented. The genes for the 12S and 16S rRNA, 22tRNA, cytochrome c oxidase subunits I, II and III, ATPase subunit 6, cytochrome b and 8 other predicted protein coding genes were located. The sequence shows extreme economy in that the genes have none or only a few noncoding bases between them, and in many cases the termination codons are not coded in the DNA but are created post-transcriptionally by polyadenylation of the mRNA.
