Abstract excerpt
Pathogenic mutations in the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) impair organellar ATP production, requiring mutant cells to activate metabolic adaptations for survival. Understanding how metabolism adapts to clinically relevant mtDNA mutations may provide insight into cellular strategies for metabolic flexibility. In this study, we use 13C isotope tracing and metabolic flux analysis to investigate central carbon and...
