Mitochondrial cardiomyopathies: how to identify candidate pathogenic mutations by mitochondrial DNA sequencing, MITOMASTER and phylogeny

TL;DR: The automated information system, MITOMASTER, is used to make a preliminary distinction between normal mtDNA variation and pathogenic mutations in patient samples; this fast and easy approach allowed us to select the variants for traditional analysis to establish pathogenicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondrial DNA variation in an aboriginal Australian population: evidence for genetic isolation and regional differentiation.

TL;DR: The mt-DNA data corroborate the genetic uniqueness of Aboriginal Australian populations and suggested that Aboriginal Australian and Papua New Guinea populations may have once shared an ancient ancestral population(s), and then rapidly diverged from each other once geographically separated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondria and dystonia: The movement disorder connection?

TL;DR: In the current issue of these Proceedings, the association between the mitochondria and dystonia is extended by demonstrating that a mutation in a nuclear DNA gene encoding a protein involved in the import of mitochondrial inner membrane carrier proteins can also cause dySTONia.
