Molecular and biochemical characterisation of a novel mutation in POLG associated with Alpers syndrome

BACKGROUND: DNA polymerase γ (POLG) is the only known mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) polymerase. It mediates mtDNA replication and base excision repair. Mutations in the POLG gene lead to reduction of functional mtDNA (mtDNA depletion and/or deletions) and are therefore predicted to result in defective o...
