This causes programmed cell death followed by DNA damage – our investigations ... "Our approach targets mitochondria directly, using external genes to activate a process that kills cells.

Most cells, however, contain multiple mitochondria and each mitochondrion contains multiple copies of the mtDNA molecule. Hence the mtDNA can make up 1% or so of a cell’s total DNA. A gene is a ...
