Mitochondrial DNA mutation load in a family with the m.8344A>G point mutation and lipomas: a case study

Abstract

Studies have shown that difference in mtDNA mutation load among tissues is a result of postnatal modification. We present five family members with the m.8344A>G with variable phenotypes but uniform intrapersonal distribution of mutation load, indicating that there is no postnatal modification of mtDNA mutation load in this genotype.
