Detection of Ultra-Rare Mitochondrial Mutations in Breast Stem Cells by Duplex Sequencing.
Long-lived adult stem cells could accumulate non-repaired DNA damage or mutations that increase the risk of tumor formation. To date, studies on mutations in stem cells have concentrated on clonal (homoplasmic) mutations and have not focused on rarely occurring stochastic mutations that may accumula...
