Abstract
Mitochondrial translation is a complex process responsible for the synthesis of essential proteins involved in oxidative phosphorylation, a fundamental pathway for cellular energy production. Central to this process is the termination phase, where dedicated factors play a pivotal role in ensuring accurate and timely protein production. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of translation termination in human mitochondria, emphasizing structural features and molecular functions of two mitochondrial termination factors mtRF1 and mtRF1a.

Human Molecular Genetics concentrates on full-length research papers covering a wide range of topics in all aspects of human molecular genetics. These include:
the molecular basis of human genetic disease
developmental genetics
cancer genetics
neurogenetics
chromosome and genome structure and function
therapy of genetic disease
stem cells in human genetic disease and therapy, including the application of iPS cells
genome-wide association studies
mouse and other models of human diseases
functional genomics
computational genomics
In addition, the journal also publishes research on other model systems for the analysis of genes, especially when there is an obvious relevance to human genetics.
