The ability of human nuclear DNA to cause false positive low-abundance heteroplasmy calls varies across the mitochondrial genome

BACKGROUND: Low-abundance mutations in mitochondrial populations (mutations with minor allele frequency ≤ 1%), are associated with cancer, aging, and neurodegenerative disorders. While recent progress in high-throughput sequencing technology has significantly improved the heteroplasmy identification...
