A simple method for sequencing the whole human mitochondrial genome directly from samples and its application to genetic testing

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a revolutionary sequencing technology for analyzing genomes. However, preprocessing methods for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequencing remain complex, and it is required to develop an authenticated preprocessing method. Here, we developed a simple and easy preprocessing method based on isothermal rolling circle mtDNA amplification using commercially available reagents. Isothermal amplification of mtDNA was...
