Abstract excerpt

Although polymorphism of the mitochondrial DNA 15497guanine/adenine (Mt15497G-->A) leads to the Gly251Ser amino acid replacement on human cytochrome b, it is unknown whether functional alteration of the mitochondrion is induced by the Gly251Ser replacement. To see if an association exists between the Mt15497G-->A polymorphism and obesity, we examined differences in body size, body composition, and regional body...
