Figure 1.

PCR amplification of ρ⁺ and ρ^o DNA and of DNA from the supernatant (S) and the pelleted cell debris (P) after 10 min of boiling of the buffy coat of an AD patient (subject 1) and a control (subject 2), using primers corresponding to the three COX genes. The predicted sizes of the PCR products, in bp, are at right. M, DNA Mass Ladder markers (GIBCO/BRL) with sizes, in bp, at left.
