Figure 2—figure supplement 1. VAFs of phased somatic mtDNA substitutions.

Figure 2—figure supplement 1.

This figure presents VAF pairs between co-clonal, sub-clonal, and different strand mtDNA substitutions. We expect similar VAFs for co-clonal pairs; lower VAF in sub-clonal mutations compared to clonal ones; and sum of a VAF pair is equal or less than 1.0.
