Persistence and Transcription of Paternal mtDNA Dependent on the Delivery Strategy Rather than Mitochondria Source in Fish Embryos

Persistence and Transcription of Paternal mtDNA Dependent on the Delivery Strategy Rather than Mitochondria Source in Fish Embryos

Background/Aims: Mitochondria (MT) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) show maternal inheritance in most eukaryotic organisms; the sperm mtDNA is usually delivered to the egg during fertilization and then rapidly eliminated to avoid heteroplasmy, which can affect embryogenesis. In our previous study, fert...
