text: a | A mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutation in the tRNA for Lys that results in the substitution of adenine for guanine at position 8344 (m.8344A>G tRNALys(AAR)
text: Mitochondrial disorders may be caused by mutations (acquired or inherited), in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), or in nuclear genes that code for mitochondrial components.
text: Loss of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) induced by the knockout of the nucleus-encoded mitochondrial transcription factor Tfam can also cause apoptosis in mice23, a finding that provides a hypothetical pathogenic link between mtDNA mutations and neurodegeneration.
text: Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is highly susceptible to mutations, largely because it does not possess the robust DNA repair mechanisms common to nuclear DNA.
