2. Mitochondrial DNA - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_DNA

   Human mitochondrial DNA was the first significant part of the human genome to be sequenced. [4] This sequencing revealed that human mtDNA has 16,569 base pairs and encodes 13 proteins. As in other vertebrates, the human mitochondrial genetic code differs slightly from nuclear DNA. [5]

3. Genealogical DNA test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genealogical_DNA_test

   The mitochondrion is a component of a human cell, and contains its own DNA. Mitochondrial DNA usually has 16,569 base pairs (the number can vary slightly depending on addition or deletion mutations) [24] and is much smaller than the human genome DNA which has 3.2 billion base pairs. Mitochondrial DNA is transmitted from mother to child, as it ...

4. MT-ND4 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MT-ND4

   The MT-ND4 gene is located in human mitochondrial DNA from base pair 10,760 to 12,137. [5] [11] The MT-ND4 gene produces a 52 kDa protein composed of 459 amino acids.[12] [13] MT-ND4 is one of seven mitochondrial genes encoding subunits of the enzyme NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone), together with MT-ND1, MT-ND2, MT-ND3, MT-ND4L, MT-ND5, and MT-ND6.

5. Human mitochondrial genetics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_mitochondrial_genetics

   The human mitochondrial genome is the entirety of hereditary information contained in human mitochondria. Mitochondria are small structures in cells that generate energy for the cell to use, and are hence referred to as the "powerhouses" of the cell. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is not transmitted through nuclear DNA (nDNA).

6. Haplogroup B (mtDNA) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_B_(mtDNA)

   This phylogenetic tree of haplogroup B subclades is based on the paper by Mannis van Oven and Manfred Kayser Updated comprehensive phylogenetic tree of global human mitochondrial DNA variation [1] and subsequent published research. B'R11'R24. B4'5 – China (Han from Zhanjiang, Paleolithic remains from Tianyuan Cave), the Philippines B4

7. Paternal mtDNA transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paternal_mtDNA_transmission

   In genetics, paternal mtDNA transmission and paternal mtDNA inheritance refer to the incidence of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) being passed from a father to his offspring. . Paternal mtDNA inheritance is observed in a small proportion of species; in general, mtDNA is passed unchanged from a mother to her offspring, [1] making it an example of non-Mendelian inh

8. Cambridge Reference Sequence - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambridge_Reference_Sequence

   The Cambridge Reference Sequence (CRS) for human mitochondrial DNA was first announced in 1981. [ 2 ] A group led by Fred Sanger at the University of Cambridge had sequenced the mitochondrial genome of one woman of European descent [ 3 ] during the 1970s, determining it to have a length of 16,569 base pairs (0.0006% of the nuclear human genome ...

9. Mitochondrial DNA (journal) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_DNA_(journal)

   Previously published under the title DNA Sequence (Vols 1–19.3), Mitochondrial DNA accepts original high-quality reports based on mapping, sequencing and analysis of mitochondrial DNA and RNA. Descriptive papers on DNA sequences from mitochondrial genomes, and also analytical papers in the areas of population genetics, medical genetics ...
