Table 4. Non-synonymous mitochondrial DNA sequence changes detected in control subject
This table assesses each nucleotide change in controls not previously found to be haplogroup-specific polymorphism as described in Methods. "Transversion" is a mutation in which a purine/pyrimidine replaces a pyrimidine/purine base pair or vice versa (G:C>T:A or C:G, or A:T>T:A or C:G), and "Transition" is a mutation in which a purine/pyrimidine base pair is replaced with a base pair in the same purine/pyrimidine relationship (A:T>G:C or C:G>T:A). "Controls (%)" represents percent of controls with this nucleotide substitution. "Heteroplasmy (%)" represents percent of mutant DNA present. "NA" represents not applicable because the nucleotide change was always found in homoplasmic state. To determine novelty, previous reports of sequence variants were found in the MITOMAP database, the human mitochondrial Genome database, GenBank, and Medline listed publications. Interspecies conservation was assessed using PolyPhen which determines interspecies conservation for an altered amino acid by performing alignment with all available amino acid sequences for other species, and the Mamit-tRNA website when necessary. Protean predicts and displays secondary structural characteristics. "Yes" indicates nucleotide change will alter protein secondary structure; "No" indicates change will not alter secondary structure. PolyPhen prediction of pathogenicity was assessed utilizing the PolyPhen database. "Probably damaging" constitutes a high confidence of affecting protein function or structure. "Possibly damaging" reflects a likelihood of affecting protein function or structure, while "Benign" changes most likely lack phenotypic effect. "Unknown" means that PolyPhen could not make a prediction due to lack of data. The Sorting Intolerant from Tolerant website (SIFT) returns predictions for which amino acid substitutions will affect protein function. "Yes" means an amino acid change is predicted to affect protein function, while "No" means the amino acid change is not predicted to affect protein function. Summary: A sequence variant was considered potentially pathologic if it satisfied all the following conditions, where possible: it changed a moderately or highly conserved amino acid; Protean predicted an alteration of protein structure; it was predicted by SIFT to have an effect on protein function; and it was assessed as possibly or probably pathogenic by PolyPhen.
