The molecular genetics of mitochondrial cytopathies: the Melbourne experience.

Abstract excerpt

Mitochondrial DNA is a unique, maternally inherited molecule encoding several subunits of the respiratory enzyme chain. In several mitochondrial cytopathies mutations have been described in this genome viz. large-scale heteroplasmic deletions in syndromes with progressive external ophthalmoplegia and point mutations in MELAS and MERRF encephalomyopathies. We here report Southern blot analyses in the cases of CPEO...
