A Complete Mitochondrial Genome Sequence from a Mesolithic Wild Aurochs (Bos primigenius) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background The derivation of domestic cattle from the extinct wild aurochs (Bos primigenius) has been well-documented by archaeological and genetic studies.

The Role of Mitochondria in Human Fertility and Early Embryo Development: What Can We Learn for Clinical Application of Assessing and Improving Mitochondrial DNA?

open access: yesCells, 2022
Mitochondria are well known as ‘the powerhouses of the cell’. Indeed, their major role is cellular energy production driven by both mitochondrial and nuclear DNA.

Reversible mitochondrial respiratory chain impairment during symptomatic hyperlactatemia associated with antiretroviral therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Direct evidence confirming the hypothesis that a dysfunction of the mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) underlies the pathogenesis of hyperlactatemia associated with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is scarce.

Structure–Function Analysis Reveals the Singularity of Plant Mitochondrial DNA Replication Components: A Mosaic and Redundant System

open access: yesPlants, 2019
Plants are sessile organisms, and their DNA is particularly exposed to damaging agents. The integrity of plant mitochondrial and plastid genomes is necessary for cell survival.

The mitochondrial genome of the venomous cone snail conus consors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Cone snails are venomous predatory marine neogastropods that belong to the species-rich superfamily of the Conoidea. So far, the mitochondrial genomes of two cone snail species (Conus textile and Conus borgesi) have been described, and these feed on ...

A new method for long-read sequencing of animal mitochondrial genomes: application to the identification of equine mitochondrial DNA variants

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2020
Background Mitochondrial DNA is remarkably polymorphic. This is why animal geneticists survey mitochondrial genomes variations for fundamental and applied purposes.

Maternal age effect and severe germ-line bottleneck in the inheritance of human mitochondrial DNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The manifestation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) diseases depends on the frequency of heteroplasmy (the presence of several alleles in an individual), yet its transmission across generations cannot be readily predicted owing to a lack of data on the size ...

Mitochondrial DNA homeostasis: A novel therapeutic target for neurodegenerative diseases

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
The mitochondrial genomic homeostasis is essential for the function of the oxidative phosphorylation system and cellular homeostasis. Mitochondrial DNA is particularly susceptible to aging-related oxidative stress due to the lack of a histone coat ...

Rare Primary Mitochondrial DNA Mutations and Probable Synergistic Variants in Leber’s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a maternally inherited blinding disorder, which in over 90% of cases is due to one of three primary mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) point mutations (m.11778G>A, m.3460G>A and m.14484T>C, respectively ...

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.
