Abstract

Aim: Mitochondria play a critical role in the generation of metabolic energy in eukaryotic cells. Mitochondrial DNA is assumed to experience a higher mutation rate than nuclear DNA and mitochondrial DNA mutation is one of the major causes of human diseases. This study aims to detect mitochondrial DNA mutations using Sanger sequencing technique. Materials and methods: Mitochondrial DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples of patients with mitochondrial disorders. PCR and Sanger sequencing were thereafter established to identify mutations on mitochondrial DNA. Results: There were 19 cases carrying mitochondrial DNA variants among a total of 43 cases, in which m.3243A>G mutation accounted for the highest rate (73.68%). Conclusion: Detection of mitochondrial DNA variants has been successfully and effectively established via utilization of Sanger sequencing technique.
