MitoScape: A big-data, machine-learning platform for obtaining mitochondrial DNA from next-generation sequencing data.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2021
The growing number of next-generation sequencing (NGS) data presents a unique opportunity to study the combined impact of mitochondrial and nuclear-encoded genetic variation in complex disease.

Alterations of the mitochondrial proteome caused by the absence of mitochondrial DNA: A proteomic view [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The proper functioning of mitochondria requires that both the mitochondrial and the nuclear genome are functional. To investigate the importance of the mitochondrial genome, which encodes only 13 subunits of the respiratory complexes, the mitochondrial ...

Commentary of "The Use of Mitochondrial Replacement in IVF: A Call for Expansion"

open access: yesVoices in Bioethics, 2014
by Lillian Ringel • Briana’s op-ed calling for expansion of mitochondrial DNA replacement in IVF was an interesting read.  She starts her op-ed with a description of what mitochondrial DNA is, and though it may seem rudimentary to some, since I have a

Cytoplasmic DNA in the unfertilized sea urchin egg: Physical properties of circular mitochondrial DNA and the occurrence of catenated forms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1968
The mitochondrial DNA in the unfertilized egg of the sea urchin Lytechinus pictus is present in an amount approximately seven times that of the haploid nuclear DNA.(1) The mitochondrial DNA has a higher buoyant density than the nuclear DNA and consists ...

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

Plasma Mitochondrial DNA Level is a Prognostic Marker in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

open access: yesKidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2016
Background/Aims: Circulating bacterial DNA fragment is related to systemic inflammatory state in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. We hypothesize that circulating mitochondrial DNA, which has a similar structure with bacterial DNA, correlates with ...

TYMP Variants Result in Late-Onset Mitochondrial Myopathy With Altered Muscle Mitochondrial DNA Homeostasis

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Biallelic TYMP variants result in the mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy (MNGIE), a juvenile-onset disorder with progressive course and fatal outcome. Milder late-onset (>40 years) form has been rarely described.

Mitochondrial Dna Replacement Versus Nuclear Dna Persistence

open access: yes, 2006
In this paper we consider two populations whose generations are not overlapping and whose size is large. The number of males and females in both populations is constant.
