Probability-based sequence comparison finds pre-eutherian nuclear mitochondrial DNA segments in mammalian genomes
2025-03-16
Abstract excerpt
The insertion of mitochondrial genome-derived DNA sequences into the nuclear genome is a frequent event in organismal evolution, resulting in nuclear-mitochondrial DNA segments (NUMTs), which serve as a significant driving force for genome evolution. Once incorporated into the nuclear genome, some NUMTs can be conserved for extended periods and may potentially acquire novel cellular roles. However, current mainstr...
