This structure disappears in organisms with mutations in the Twinkle helicase and contains a pairof hypervariable regions within its D-loop. Diseases linked to this structure are suppressed byheteroplasmy. Defects in this structure cause cyclic vomiting syndrome and a disease in which raggedred fibers appear in muscle. In humans, this structure contains a 7S rRNA gene that mice lack. Thisstructure

In humans, this structure contains a 7S rRNA gene that mice lack. Thisstructure, mutations in which cause Lieber's (*) Neuropathy and several myopathies, contains severaltRNA genes and genes encoding components of the electron transport chain. Mutations of this structure arealmost exclusively maternally inherited. For 10 points, name this circular structure found inside the matrixof an organelle that produces ATP.
