MITOMAP: Reported mtDNA Deletions
Last Edited: Feb 28, 2025

Note:
Most deletions above are likely somatic mutations. Other somatic variants can be found
here.
Only deletions with sequenced breakpoints are included. Numerous other reports of mapped deletions have been published without specific sequence data
reference.
Reported deletion junctions may be approximate due to the presence identical repeat sequences at the break points. Alternate junctions may be reported in the cited literature due to the inherent ambiguities of the direct repeats.
- D = direct repeat.
- I = indirect repeat, homology as specified.
- NR = no repeats reported.
- N = number of subjects in which the deletion was detected.
