Linear mitochondrial DNA is rapidly degraded by components of the replication machinery
Damaged linearized mtDNA needs to be removed from the cell for mitochondrial genome stability. Here the authors shed light into the identity of the machinery responsible for rapidly degrading linearized DNA, implicating the role of mtDNA replication factors.
