mtDNA eQTLs and the m1A 16S rRNA modification explain mtDNA tissue-specific gene expression pattern in humans
2018-12-13
Abstract excerpt
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) are instrumental in genome-wide identification of regulatory elements, yet were overlooked in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). By analyzing 5079 RNA-seq samples from 23 tissues we identified association of ancient mtDNA SNPs (haplogroups T2, L2, J2 and V) and recurrent SNPs (mtDNA positions 263, 750, 1438 and 10398) with tissue-dependent mtDNA gene-expression. Since the rec...
