Association of mitochondrial DNA haplogroups J and K with low response in exercise training among Finnish military conscripts

Abstract Background We have previously suggested that some of the mutations defining mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroups J and K produce an uncoupling effect on oxidative phosphorylation and thus are detrimental for elite endurance performance. Here, the association between haplogroups J and K and...
