Sir
Pierre Maechler and Claes B. Wollheim1 in their interesting Insight Review Article on mitochondrial function in normal and diabetic β-cells show diabetes-associated mutations in the human mitochondrial genome in their Fig. 1. One of these mutations is G3316A in the ND1 gene (references cited in ref. 1).
