T15465G MUTATION, ALTERED METHIONINE TO TERMINATION CODON OF THE MTDNA CYT B GENE, WAS FOUND IN A MAN WITH MYOPATHY

The mitochondrial myopathies are neuromuscular diseases that can be associated with mitochondrial DNA mutations. A 27-year-old man of four members in the family has been demonstrated positively detected to myopathy, whereas the molecular studies underlying this disorder are still unknown. Mitochondr...
