Breakage sites in the mouse mitochondrial genome are associated with hairpin elements. All of the deletion breakpoints described in transgenic mice with mitochondrial disease (grey arrows) are indicated in the Mus musculus mtDNA L-strand reference sequence (NC_005089), from position 15 150 to 15 469. The secondary structures were obtained in the mfold-util software v4.6.
