  • Look Inside

 Deletions of mitochondrial genomes have been detected in most cases with Kearns-Sayre syndrome (KSS) and more than half cases with Chronic Progressive Ophthalmoplegia (CPEO). Most of deletions were mapped between the origins of heavy or light-strand replication. About 70% of deletion breakpoints were flanked by direct repeats. The mechanism of deletion has not yet been elucidated, although some hypotheses of legitimate or illegitimate recombination, such as slipped mispairing, are postulated. Heteroplasmy of wild-type and deleted mitochondrial genomes has been associated with a veriety of phenotypes, that is, Pearson's syndrome or atypical mitochondrial myopathy without external ophthalmoplegia. Some mutations of tRNAs can cause CPEO syndrome. Tissue distribution or intra-myotubular distribution of deleted and wild-typed mitochondrial genomes is discussed.
