[edit] Database Description

The GiiB-JST mtSNP (mitochondrial single nucleotide polymorphism) database provides information related to the functional differences among mitochondrial SNPs. This web site is useful for identification of mtSNPs associated with age-related conditions such as longevity, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease, as well as those related to energy metabolism such as obesity, thinness, and type-2 diabetes, or to atherosclerosis.
