Mitochondrial diseases, often stemming from complex genetic factors, impact the mitochondria's energy production. Japanese ...

Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (MTDPS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by a marked decrease in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). This condition can cause symptoms including muscle weakness ...

A new collaborative study from Karolinska Institutet published in Science Advances shows that the levels of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) directly influence lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) progression in mice.

Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (MTDPS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by a marked decrease in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). This ...

Imagine a future where fatigue is a thing of the past, and the effects of aging no longer dictate how we live our lives. This ...

The mitochondrial genome is the full genetic complement of a mitochondrion. Mitochondrial DNA is only a small portion of the total DNA of a eukaryotic cell and in most species is solely inherited ...

Summary: Researchers used mitochondrial gene editing to model genetic disorders in mice, revealing profound impacts on brain function, metabolism, and thermoregulation. They employed a specialized DNA ...

The remains of an Alabama infantryman who was killed in the Korean War are returning home for burial. The Defense POW/MIA ...

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)-encoded RNA molecules undergo extensive processing to generate mature RNA, including removal of spurious poly-A tails by phosphodiesterase12 (PDE12). A new study by Van Haute ...

Scientists have uncovered genetic variation in the unexplored DNA of the photosynthetic and energy factories of Arabidopsis plants, which plays a ...
