The Long PCR followed by the RFLP technique has been used to search for abnormally structured mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and specific sequence differences implicated in the pathogenesis of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). We have studied 54 specific sites whose combinations define groups of mtDNA

In order to identify putative adaptive human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA) variants, we assembled a sequential mutational tree from 2,460 human mtDNA coding sequences, thus providing the relative age of all mtDNA sequence variants. Deleterious mutations aff
Authentic simian virus 40 (SV40) has been detected in association with human choroid plexus and ependymoma tumors, and SV40-like DNA sequences have been found in some human osteosarcomas. We report here an analysis of human osteosarcoma samples for the presence of SV40 DNA using PCR and primers dire
