Abstract excerpt
In the last few years morphological-cytochemical investigations and molecular genetic analysis have considerably increased the knowledge about disorders of mitochondrial functions. Molecular genetic studies have revealed that specific mutations of mitochondrial DNA are associated with specific clinical diseases and may therefore be of value in genetic counseling. Since the mitochondrial DNA is present in a high...
