Stable heteroplasmy but differential inheritance of a large mitochondrial DNA deletion in nematodes.

Biochemistry and cell biology = Biochimie et biologie cellulaire - 1 Jan 2002

Tsang William Y, Lemire Bernard D

Abstract excerpt

Many human mitochondrial diseases are associated with defects in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Mutated and wild-type forms of mtDNA often coexist in the same cell in a state called heteroplasmy. Here, we report the isolation of a Caenorhabditis elegans strain bearing the 3.1-kb uaDf5 deletion th...
