Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To explore novel pathogenic mutation in the mitochondrial DNA gene in diabetic pedigree. METHODS: Twenty-eight suspected mitochondrial DNA diabetic families were recruited. The gene fragment was produced by PCR, and mutation was detected by direct sequencing. RESULTS: In one pedigree, the proband and her mother were found carrying the most common nt3243 A --> G mutation and another 16S rRNA 3205C --> T...
