The accessory subunit of mitochondrial DNA polymerase {gamma} determines the DNA content of mitochondrial nucleoids in human cultured cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The accessory subunit of mitochondrial DNA polymerase γ, POLGβ, functions as a processivity factor in vitro. Here we show POLGβ has additional roles in mitochondrial DNA metabolism.

No excess of mitochondrial DNA deletions within muscle in progressive multiple sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Mitochondrial dysfunction is an established feature of multiple sclerosis (MS). We recently described high levels of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) deletions within respiratory enzyme-deficient (lacking mitochondrial respiratory chain complex IV with intact ...

Analysis of Nuclear Mitochondrial DNA Segments of Nine Plant Species: Size, Distribution, and Insertion Loci [PDF]

open access: yesGenomics & Informatics, 2016
Nuclear mitochondrial DNA segment (Numt) insertion describes a well-known phenomenon of mitochondrial DNA transfer into a eukaryotic nuclear genome. However, it has not been well understood, especially in plants. Numt insertion patterns vary from species

Mechanism of neurodegeneration of neurons with mitochondrial DNA mutations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Mutations of mitochondrial DNA are associated with a wide spectrum of disorders, primarily affecting the central nervous system and muscle function. The specific consequences of mitochondrial DNA mutations for neuronal pathophysiology are not understood.

Molecular mechanisms of mitochondrial DNA release and activation of the cGAS-STING pathway

open access: yesExperimental and Molecular Medicine, 2023
Inflammatory diseases: Understanding mitochondrial DNA release Cytosolic DNA activates the cGAS-STING pathway which mediates inflammation and antiviral response. One source of cytosolic DNA is ‘self ‘ DNA, such as mitochondrial DNA.
