Mitochondrial matrix proteins can never be mis-targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum during synthesis because MRNAS encoding mitochondrial matrix proteins bind to a special class of cytoplasmic ribosomes that only synthesize mitochondrial proteins they are frequently targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum but are rapidly degraded they don't interact with signal recognition particle they are always synthesized inside the mitochondria

Gene Interactions

When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.

Gene Expression

Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
