Long-read MitoScope reveals tissue-resolved somatic mitochondrial variation and landscape of nuclear-embedded mitochondrial sequences
2026-04-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> The mitochondrial genome (mtDNA), rich in repeats and prone to nuclear mitochondrial DNA segments (NUMTs), drives somatic mosaicism implicated in cancer, metabolic syndromes, and neurodegeneration, yet short-read sequencing yields incomplete catalogs, mapping artifacts, and false heteroplasmies. Here, we introduce MitoScope, a scalable long-read workflow to assemble mtDNA, perform high-fidelity v...
