Mitochondrial DNA as a marker of molecular diversity: a reappraisal.
Over the last three decades, mitochondrial DNA has been the most popular marker of molecular diversity, for a combination of technical ease-of-use considerations, and supposed biological and evolutionary properties of clonality, near-neutrality and clock-like nature of its substitution rate. Reviewing recent literature on the subject, we argue that mitochondrial DNA is not always clonal, far fr...
متن کاملA mitochondrial DNA duplication as a marker of skeletal muscle specific mutations in the mitochondrial genome.
M itochondrial myopathies are often associated with point mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), and are usually maternally inherited. However, they may also present as an isolated myopathy, often with ptosis and ophthalmoparesis, or with isolated exercise intolerance. In eight patients with exercise intolerance described by us in 1999, there was no evidence of maternal inheritance, muscle his...
متن کاملRevisiting the mouse mitochondrial DNA sequence.
The existence of reliable mtDNA reference sequences for each species is of great relevance in a variety of fields, from phylogenetic and population genetics studies to pathogenetic determination of mtDNA variants in humans or in animal models of mtDNA-linked diseases. We present compelling evidence for the existence of sequencing errors on the current mouse mtDNA reference sequence. This includ...
متن کاملCytoplasmic dynamics as a new marker of embryonic quality
Quality of an oocyte’s cytoplasm is an important factor affecting preand postimplantation development of the future embryo. It can be compromised for example by aging, both maternal (i.e. related to the female's age) and postovulatory (i.e. related to the time between ovulation and fertilization). Recently, we have establish a new non-invasive method to assess cytoplasmic quality of fertilized ...
متن کاملChanges in mitochondrial DNA as a marker of nucleoside toxicity in HIV-infected patients.
BACKGROUND Nucleoside analogues can induce toxic effects on mitochondria by inhibiting the human DNA polymerase gamma. The toxic effects can range from increased serum lactate levels to potentially fatal lactic acidosis. We studied changes in mitochondrial DNA relative to nuclear DNA in the peripheral-blood cells of patients with symptomatic, nucleoside-induced hyperlactatemia. METHODS Total ...
