Polymorphism: mtDNA haplotypes



Variant Type: Haplotype

Factor:
- Symbol: mtDNA


Description:

Study that goes over 46 mitochondrial haplotypes which are defined by the presence/absence of 34 restriction sites. There's no mention of a gene, SNPs or alleles. Some haplotypes were uniquly present only in the cases (aged) sample, yet no significance was reported.

Ethnicity: Irish
Age of cases: 80 -97
Finding: Negative

Statistics
- Number of cases/controls: 129 vs 100 (initial)
- Significant: No

Study Design
- Classifications: No Age Effect
- Study type: Mitochondrial Haplogroup
- Technology: 373A automated DNA sequencer
