ESHG: New Variant Analyses by Broad Institute Enhance Rare Disease Diagnostics
Analyzing data from the Broad's Center for Mendelian Genomics, researchers showed the diagnostic utility of exome CNVs and mitochondrial DNA variants.
Mitochondrial Genome Analysis Points to Early Asian Migrations to the Americas, Japan
Researchers retraced two historical migration events from northern China by focusing on a mitochondrial genome lineage called D4h and the sub-lineages that arose from it.
Spanish Colonial History in Haiti, Eastern US Documented in Ancient Horse DNA
Researchers generated a mitochondrial genome that pointed to Iberian Peninsula origins for a colonial horse in Haiti, along with ties to present-day ponies on the US East Coast.
The Wilmington, Delaware-based startup is hoping to leverage its proprietary mitochondrial and chloroplast gene editing technology in wheat, rice, and beyond.
Mitochondrial Protein Resource Reveals New Disease Players
Researchers developed a "mitochondrial orphan protein multi-omics" (MITOMICS) app by profiling proteins, lipids, and metabolites in cells lacking individual mitochondrial proteins.
