## Abstract Defects in NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I), the largest complex of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, account for most cases of respiratory chain deficiency in human. Complex I contains at least 45 subunits, 7 of which are encoded by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Here we repor
We showed previously that a mutation in the mitochondria1 tRNAL"(UUR' gene at position 3243 associates with maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD). This mutation shows heteroplasmy in DNA from peripheral blood and other tissues. To examine whether heteroplasmy levels in peripheral blood D
Angelman syndrome is a neurobehavioral disorder caused by defects of imprinted gene(s) on chromosome 15q11-13. AS-specific DNA methylation is found in patients carrying 3-4 Mb deletions (โผ โผ70%), paternal uniparental disomy (3-5%) or imprinting center mutations (2-9%), while normal methylation patte
