Mitokondriyal DNA, Anaerkil Kalıtım ve İnsan

Türkçe

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) studies have been formed within the network of medicine, genetics, anthropology, and archeology. It has been an indispensable source of knowledge in relation to population relationships, migration routes, evolutionary developmental steps, and enlightening historical unknowns over the ages as well as being essential in researching maternally inherited mitochondrial diseases. mtDNA - haplogroup studies provide us advanced data with molecular genetic techniques and the development of next-generation sequencing technologies, which cannot be obtained with the classical approach of anthropological studies. In this review, mtDNA studies obtained from ancient and modern human materials were reviewed.
