Mitochondrial heteroplasmy profiling in single human oocytes by next-generation sequencing

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) plays a key role in the development of a competent oocyte. Mutations of the mitochondrial genome lead to an altered energetic metabolism with negative effects on oocyte developmental competence. In this study, mtDNA heteroplasmy at an intra-oocyte level and between the diff...
