Sharing of heteroplasmies between human liver lobes varies across the mtDNA genome

2017-06-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) heteroplasmy (intra-individual variation) varies among different human tissues and increases with age, suggesting that the majority of mtDNA heteroplasmies are acquired, rather than inherited. However, the extent to which heteroplasmic sites are shared across a tissue remains an open question. We therefore investigated heteroplasmy in two liver samples (one from each pr...
