    Abstract
    Mitochondria are required for cellular respiration, which is essential in the production of ATP. Mitochondrial genome maintenance is necessary for the continued function of the mitochondrion. Deletions within the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have been shown to be associated with a variety of human neuromuscular and age-related diseases. In this study we investigated the role of the MRX complex and the non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) DNA repair pathway in mitochondrial genome stability and repair. Specifically, we investigated the role of the MRX complex and the NHEJ pathway in the occurrence of spontaneous mitochondrial direct repeat-mediated deletions, nuclear direct repeat-mediated deletions, mitochondrial point mutations, nuclear point mutations, and spontaneous respiration loss using fluctuation analysis in the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this study, we have demonstrated that spontaneous mitochondrial direct repeat-mediated deletions are reduced 75 fold (p

    The export option will allow you to export the current search results of the entered query to a file. Different formats are available for download. To export the items, click on the button corresponding with the preferred download format.

    By default, clicking on the export buttons will result in a download of the allowed maximum amount of items.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" button and make a selection of the items you want to export. The amount of items that can be exported at once is similarly restricted as the full export.

    After making a selection, click one of the export format buttons. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to export format.
