CD Genomics as one of the providers of mitochondrial genome analysis, We use the method of bioinformatics analysis to study mtDNA mutation sites and heterogeneity to help reveal the pathogenesis of mitochondrial-related diseases. Our unique data analysis skills and appropriate software tools can meet customers' personalized laboratory data analysis needs, and provide you with easy-to-interpret data analysis reports.
Introduction of Mitochondrial Genome
Mitochondria are a very important organelle in eukaryotic cells, and are the places where cells undergo oxidative phosphorylation. Mitochondria have their own DNA and genetic system, which are closely related to biological evolution and cell origin. The whole mitochondrial genome also has unique advantages in the study of biological evolution. Since mitochondria have a long-term evolutionary history of symbiosis with eukaryotes, their genome contains key information reflecting the evolution of species. At the same time, compared with the nuclear genome, the mitochondrial genome is small, and it is easy to conduct horizontal comparative analysis of a large number of species, which is beneficial to the study of biological evolution.
Mitochondrial genome data is widely used in systems and evolutionary biology, population genetics and conservation biology. With the development of sequencing technology and the reduction of costs, as well as the development of bioinformatics, a large number of mitochondrial genome sequences have been sequenced. The content of mitochondrial bioinformatics analysis mainly includes assembly, annotation, and structure drawing.
