Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Disorders of the mitochondrial respiratory chain are heterogeneous in their symptoms and underlying genetics. Simple links between candidate mutations and expression of disease phenotype typically do not exist. It thus remains unclear how the genetic variation in the mitochondrial genome contributes to the phenotypic expression of complex traits and disease phenotypes. SCOPE OF REVIEW: I summarize the...
