چکیده

BACKGROUND: Mitochondrial diseases are clinically and genetically heterogeneous, with variable penetrance, expressivity, and differing age of onset. Diseasecausing point mutations and large deletions in the mitochondrial genome often exist in a heteroplasmic state. Current molecular analyses require multiple different and complementary methods for the detection and quantification of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations. We developed a novel approach to analyze the mtDNA in 1 step.

Sequencing and Molecular Analysis of ATP 6 and ATP 8 of Mitochondrial Genome in Khorasanian Native Chickens

In order to perform breeding programs and improve production of native chickens, preserving genetic diversity in different areas of Iran is important due to the reduced available population. Genome sequencing is considered the most functional approach to determine the phylogeny relation between close populations. The aim of the present study was the evaluation of the phylogeny and genetic nucle...

Mapping of mitochondrial RNA-protein interactions by digital RNase footprinting.

Human mitochondrial DNA is transcribed as long polycistronic transcripts that encompass each strand of the genome and are processed subsequently into mature mRNAs, tRNAs, and rRNAs, necessitating widespread posttranscriptional regulation. Here, we establish methods for massively parallel sequencing and analyses of RNase-accessible regions of human mitochondrial RNA and thereby identify specific...

Genome-wide quantification of rare somatic mutations in normal human tissues using massively parallel sequencing.

We present the bottleneck sequencing system (BotSeqS), a next-generation sequencing method that simultaneously quantifies rare somatic point mutations across the mitochondrial and nuclear genomes. BotSeqS combines molecular barcoding with a simple dilution step immediately before library amplification. We use BotSeqS to show age- and tissue-dependent accumulations of rare mutations and demonstr...

RNA-Seq: a method for comprehensive transcriptome analysis.

A recently developed technique called RNA Sequencing (RNA-Seq) uses massively parallel sequencing to allow transcriptome analyses of genomes at a far higher resolution than is available with Sanger sequencing- and microarray-based methods. In the RNA-Seq method, complementary DNAs (cDNAs) generated from the RNA of interest are directly sequenced using next-generation sequencing technologies. Th...
