Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial diseases (MDs) are heterogeneous multisystemic disorders often caused by genetic defects in either nuclear or mitochondrial DNA. Although next-generation sequencing technologies have dramatically expanded the number of variants associated with these diseases, many remain variants of unknown significance (VUS). This review explores the utility of zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a vertebrate model system...
