Selective mitochondrial DNA degradation following double-strand breaks.

Selective mitochondrial DNA degradation following double-strand breaks.

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can undergo double-strand breaks (DSBs), caused by defective replication, or by various endogenous or exogenous sources, such as reactive oxygen species, chemotherapeutic agents or ionizing radiations. MtDNA encodes for proteins involved in ATP production, and maintenance o...
