An economical mtDNA SNP assay detecting different mitochondrial haplogroups in identical HVR 1 samples of Caucasian ancestry.

6 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: We had sequenced 329 Caucasian samples in Hypervariable Region 1 (HVR 1) and found that they belong to eleven different mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplotypes. The sample set was further analysed by an mtDNA assay examining 32 single ...

Contamination and sample mix-up can best explain some patterns of mtDNA instabilities in buccal cells and oral squamous cell carcinoma.

14 Apr 2009 The study of somatic DNA instabilities constitutes a debatable topic because different causes can lead to seeming DNA alteration patterns between different cells or tissues from the same individual. Carcinogenesis or the action of a particular toxic ...

Is the new primate genus rungwecebus a baboon?

17 Mar 2009 BACKGROUND: In 2005, a new primate species from Tanzania, the kipunji, was described and recognized as a member of the mangabey genus Lophocebus. However, molecular investigations based upon a number of papionins, including a limited sample of ...

Mitochondrial DNA haplogroups J and K are not protective for Parkinson's disease in the Australian community.

28 Jan 2009 MtDNA haplogroups J and K have been associated with a decreased risk of developing Parkinson's disease (PD). To confirm this finding, we compared the distribution of mtDNA haplogroups J and K in a large sample of Australian patients with PD (n = ...

The Etruscan timeline: a recent Anatolian connection.

Dec 2008 The origin of the Etruscans (the present day Tuscany, Italy), one of the most enigmatic non-Indo-European civilizations, is under intense controversy. We found novel genetic evidences on the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) establishing a genetic link ...

Phylogenetic position of the endemic large carpenter bee of the Ogasawara Islands, Xylocopa ogasawarensis (Matsumura, 1912) (Hymenoptera: Apidae), inferred from four genes.

30 Jul 2008 The Ogasawara (Bonin) Islands are oceanic islands of volcanic origin located in the northwestern Pacific Ocean about 1,000 km south of the Japanese mainland. A large carpenter bee, Xylocopa (Koptortosoma) ogasawarensis, is endemic to the islands but ...

Frequency and pattern of heteroplasmy in the control region of human mitochondrial DNA.

9 Jul 2008 In this work, we present the results of the screening of human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) heteroplasmy in the control region of mtDNA from 210 unrelated Spanish individuals. Both hypervariable regions of mtDNA were amplified and sequenced in order to ...

No evidence of association between frontotemporal dementia and major European mtDNA haplogroups.

8 Jul 2008 BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) inherited variability (haplogroup/sub-haplogroup) is currently emerging as not being neutral with respect to several complex traits like neurodegenerative diseases. Here we investigated the ...

Admixture and sexual bias in the population settlement of La Réunion Island (Indian Ocean).

29 Apr 2008 La Réunion, one of the three Mascarene islands located in the Indian Ocean, remained devoid of inhabitants until it was first colonized by the French in the middle of the 17th century. The continuous flow of foreign-born slaves and immigrant workers ...

Climate change and postglacial human dispersals in southeast Asia.

19 Mar 2008 Modern humans have been living in Island Southeast Asia (ISEA) for at least 50,000 years. Largely because of the influence of linguistic studies, however, which have a shallow time depth, the attention of archaeologists and geneticists has usually ...
