Manipulating the Mitochondrial Genome To Enhance Cattle Embryo Development
The mixing of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from the donor cell and the recipient oocyte in embryos and offspring derived from somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) compromises genetic integrity and affects embryo development. We set out to generate SCNT embryos that inherited their mtDNA from the recipient oocyte only, as is the case following natural conception. While SCNT blastocysts produced fro...
متن کاملAppraisal of the entire mitochondrial genome for DNA barcoding in birds
DNA barcoding based on a standardized region of 648 base pairs of mitochondrial DNAsequences from Cytochrome C Oxidase 1 (COX1) is proposed for animal species identification.Recent studies suggested that DNA barcoding has been effective for identifying 94% of birdspecies. The proposed threshold of 10 times the average intraspecific variation could be used forthe identification and delimitation ...
متن کاملThe ageing mitochondrial genome
The population of elderly individuals has increased significantly over the past century and is predicted to rise even more rapidly in the future. Ageing is a major risk factor for many diseases such as neurodegenerative disease, diabetes and cancer. This highlights the importance of understanding the mechanisms involved in the ageing process. One plausible mechanism for ageing is accumulation o...
متن کاملMitochondrial DNA segregation in the developing embryo.
Mitochondrial (mt)DNA is strictly maternally inherited in mammals; new mutations thus segregate along maternal lineages without the benefit of homologous recombination with mtDNA of paternal origin. Despite the high mtDNA copy number (approximately 100000 or more) in mature oocytes, and despite the relatively small number of cell divisions during oogenesis, mtDNA sequence variants segregate rap...
متن کاملClinical diagnosis by whole-genome sequencing of a prenatal sample.
Conventional cytogenetic testing offers low-resolution detection of balanced karyotypic abnormalities but cannot provide the precise, gene-level knowledge required to predict outcomes. The use of high-resolution whole-genome deep sequencing is currently impractical for the purpose of routine clinical care. We show here that whole-genome "jumping libraries" can offer an immediately applicable, n...
