Abstract：
:Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was isolated from liver mitochondria of rats between 2 and 24 months of age. The mtDNA was purified by cesium chloride--ethidium bromide isopycnic density gradient centrifugation. In the gradients, in addition to the two expected bands of ethidium--DNA complex, there was observed a third, more dense band (d = 1.69 g/cm3). This novel band, rarely observed in preparations from younger animals, was present in most preparations from older animals. The latter was characterized using the diphenylamine assay(s) and ascertained to contain DNA and carbohydrate components. Agarose gel electrophoresis revealed the DNA of the novel band to have a migration identical to form I mtDNA. Digestion of the novel band with the restriction endonuclease Bam HI yielded products identical to those obtained upon treatment of form I mtDNA with Bam HI. The observation of mtDNA at a density of 1.69 g/cm3 indicates the presence, predominantly in older animals, of a subclass of mtDNA molecules with altered ethidium binding properties. The significance of this mtDNA and its position in the gradient is unclear at this time.
