Table 3. mtDNA and mitochondrial respiratory changes in PEG patients

PEG patients organized according to characteristics of "Nucleotide Change(s)" from Table 2 for each patient. Patients 1-17 had no noteworthy mtDNA changes (see Methods), while patients 18-26 had NS mtDNA changes not thought to be pathologic, and patients 27-29 had NS mtDNA changes thought likely to be pathologic (see Methods). Relative mtDNA Content=ratio of ND1 to β-actin (see Methods). MRA=Mitochondrial Respiratory Activity (see Methods).
