In this article we review our current knowledge of the mechanisms by which point mutations arise in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and discuss to what extent these mechanisms operate in human mtDNA mutagenesis. The 3'-5' exonuclease proofreading activity of Pol gamma ensures accuracy of mtDNA replication in both yeast and ...

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is a 16,569 base pair (bp) circular genome that is passed from generation to generation through the maternal line. mtDNA analysis in the context of the forensic science field usually involves unidentified human remains or missing persons. These cases tend to have more challenging sample types (e.g., rootless hairs, bone, blood,

Among the numerous theories that explain the process of aging, the mitochondrial theory of aging has received the most attention. This theory states that electrons leaking from the ETC (electron transfer chain) reduce molecular oxygen to form O2•− (superoxide anion radicals).

Mitochondrial Oxidative Stress and Mitochondrial DNA
Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, 2003Mitochondria produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) under physiological conditions in association with activity of the respiratory chain in aerobic ATP production. The production of ROS is essentially a function of O2 consumption. Hence, increased mitochondrial activity per se can be an oxidative stress to cells.

Over 100 pathogenic point mutations and 200 deletions, insertions, and rearrangements have been identified since the first mitochondrial DNA mutations were described in 1988. About 60% of the point mutations affect mitochondrial tRNAs, 35% affect polypeptide subunits of the respiratory chain, and 5% affect mitochondrial ribosomal RNAs.

Mitochondrial DNA polymorphism in mitochondrial myopathy
Human Genetics, 1988In order to test the hypothesis that mitochondrial myopathy may be caused by mutation of the mitochondrial (mt) genome, restriction fragment length polymorphism in leucocyte mt DNA has been studied in 38 patients with mitochondrial myopathy, 44 of their unaffected matrilineal relatives, and 35 normal control subjects.

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is the only DNA found outside the nucleus of the cell. It has a number of useful properties for anthropological studies, including a rapid rate of evolution, maternal mode of inheritance, and being present in hundreds to thousands of copies per cell.
