Mitochondria are the cell's power site, transforming energy into a form that the cell can
employ for necessary metabolic reactions. These organelles present their own DNA …

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease affecting mostly women of
child-bearing age. Immune dysfunction in SLE results from disrupted apoptosis which lead …

Metabarcoding of Metazoa using mitochondrial genes may be confounded by both the
accumulation of PCR and sequencing artefacts and the co‐amplification of nuclear …

The mitochondrial genome is an evolutionarily persistent and cooperative component of
metazoan cells that contributes to energy production and many other cellular processes …

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is present in multiple copies within an organism. Since these
copies are not identical, a single individual carries a heterogeneous population of mtDNAs …

Methods that leverage the information about population history contained within the
increasingly abundant genetic sequences of extant and extinct hominid populations are …

Bats are the only mammals capable of true, powered flight, which drives an extremely high
metabolic rate. The “Free Radical Theory of Ageing”(FTRA) posits that a high metabolic rate …

Simple Summary This study aims to investigate mitochondrial metabolic differences
between invasive and non-invasive malignant mesotheliomas in order to find new …

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) encodes vital respiratory machinery. Populations of mtDNA
molecules exist in most eukaryotic cells, subject to replication, degradation, mutation, and …

The nature and extent of mitochondrial DNA variation in a population and how it affects traits
is poorly understood. Here we resequence the mitochondrial genomes of 169 Drosophila …
