Editing Mitochondrial matrix (section)

=== Protein synthesis ===
The mitochondria contains its own set of DNA used to produce proteins found in the electron transport chain. The mitochondrial DNA only codes for about thirteen proteins that are used in processing mitochondrial transcripts, [[ribosomal protein]]s, [[ribosomal RNA]], [[transfer RNA]], and [[protein subunit]]s found in the [[Multiprotein complex|protein complexes]] of the electron transport chain.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Fox|first=Thomas D.|date=2012-12-01|title=Mitochondrial Protein Synthesis, Import, and Assembly|journal=Genetics|volume=192|issue=4|pages=1203–1234|doi=10.1534/genetics.112.141267|issn=0016-6731|pmc=3512135|pmid=23212899}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Grivell|first1=L.A.|last2=Pel|first2=H.J.|year=1994|title=Protein synthesis in mitochondria|url=https://pure.uva.nl/ws/files/2967481/358_4203y.pdf|journal=Mol.
