No, they really don't. Bacteria and animals have completely different genetic structures. This misquote makes it clear to me that you completely missed the basic premise: Mitochondria are the energy component in mammalian cells. They have different DNA than the rest of the cell. That is a fact.
Well, not completely obv. They use DNA and a very similar code to code for aminoacids, and I'm sure many of the organizational details are similar to what we have, no?
