Nuclear DNA (nDNA) is composed of several linear chromosomes, which encodes almost all the proteins required by the cell. Mitochondrial DNA is short compared to the nuclear DNA. The main difference between mitochondrial DNA and nuclear DNA is that mitochondrial DNA is encoded for the genetic ...
What is the difference between autosomal DNA and mtDNA? What is the difference between DNA and genes? What are the distinguishing features of the hominin lineage? What is the difference between autosomal Y-DNA and mtDNA testing? What is the difference between autosomal and mtDNA tests?
Genetic modification of plants and animals is the actual transfer of genes between these plants and animals. It's not selective breeding, which is breeding two members of a plant or animal group that have favorable characteristics in the hope of preserving those characteristics. It's the actu...

For this disease, differences in age-adjusted incidence and survival rates between African American and Caucasian women are substantial. The objective of this study was to examine mtDNA sequence variants in 118 frozen tissues of three subtypes of epithelial ovarian cancer (serous, n = 48 ...
(ROS) production.18 This ROS production further enhances ER stress creating a feedback loop.19 Polymorphisms in the mtDNA lead to tighter coupling of the OXPHOS system thereby increasing ROS production.20,21 This also affects the ER due to the close relationship between the ER and the ...
N6-methyldeoxyadenosine (6 mA) modification, which is enriched in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), can be mediated by methylase METTL4. Our study suggested that mitochondrial perturbation caused by Hcy in primary neurons and PC12 cells may be attributable to mtDNA 6 mA modification difference. Hcy ...

One new germline mutation in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region was detected among 185 transmission events (generations) from five Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) pedigrees. Pooling the LHON pedigree analyses yields a control-region divergence rate of 1.0 mutation/bp/10[SUP6] ...
