(a) The absence of mtDNA-encoded protein in ρ 0 cells. The expression of mtDNA-encoded COX2 and nuclear-encoded β-actin in the parental 143B osteosarcoma and ρ 0 cell was analyzed by Western blotting. (b) The ρ 0 cells failed to survive in the galactose medium over 48 h, in contrast to the normal growth of the parental 143B cells.
