Schematic of typical animal cell, showing subcellular components. Organelles: (1) nucleus (3) ribosome (4) vesicle,(5) rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER), (6) Golgi apparatus, (7) Cytoskeleton, (8) smooth ER, (9) mitochondria, (10) vacuole, (11) cytoplasm, (12) lysosome, (13) centrioles]] Within cell biology, an organelle is one of many structures sustaining specialised functions, suspended in the cytol of the eukaryotic cell. Cell organ were historically identified through the utilize of a bit of form of microscopy and were also identified through the apply of cell fractionation.

Two or three big cell organelle probably originated from either endosymbiont bacteria: chloroplast More plastids, such as leucoplasts, amyloplasts, Etioplasts, Elaioplast, rhodoplasts, leukoplasts, and chromoplasts. mitochondrion

More cell organ include: acrosome centriole endoplasmic reticulum golgi apparatus lysosome myofibril nucleus peroxisome ribosome vacuole vesicle melanosome cilium/flagellum parenthesome

More related structures: cytosol endomembrane system nucleosome microtubule cell membrane

MitoDat
This database is dedicated to the nuclear genes specifying the enzymes, structural proteins, and other proteins, many still not identified, involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and function.

The Organelle Genome Megasequencing Program
An interdisciplinary collaboration involving ten research groups. Features search objectives and links to published sequences.

The Kennell Lab - Saint Louis University
Mitochondrial research, especially the genetics of filamentous fungi. Includes information describing mitochondrial genomes, mutants, extrachromosomal plasmids, and nuclear genes involved in mitochondrial function.

MITOMAP
Genome database of polymorphisms and mutations of the human mitochondrial DNA .

Mitochondrial DNA Concordance
Features a cross-referenced list of single nucleotide substitutions in the two hypervariable segments of the mtDNA control region.
