Research teams led by Martin Picard at Columbia University and Ryan Mills at the University of Michigan have found that mtDNA fragments - known as nuclear mitochondrial DNA segments (numts) - integrate into the nuclear genome at a high rate. We interviewed Martin Picard to learn more about Numts:

www.MitoWorld.org, happy to join BSky mitochondria community, mitochondriacs, and the quest for mitochondria to be a truly well-known phenomenon in the public, in health, medicine and at the frontiers of cell biology, bioenergetics and evolution. Happy to put up your lab, videos, papers on the site.
