The activity of cytochrome oxidase (CO), the terminal enzyme of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, has been reported to be lower in the brains of Alzheimer disease (AD) patients. This suggests that a modification of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) may be responsible for this decrease of CO activi

The UDP-glucuronosyltransferase UGT1 locus is composed of nine exon 1s, each flanked by a unique promoter region, and common exons (2, 3, 4, and the alternatively spliced exons 5a and 5b). Here, we characterized the genetic architecture of the UGT1 gene in a Caucasian sample. Overall, 98 variations
