Sequence changes found in all 3 different grades of glioma cell lines and a normal human astrocyte cell line after filtering out phylogenetically related polymorphism sites. All sequence changes were labeled as novel changes if no previous reports could be retrieved from MITOMAP database (last edited 22 May 2016: MITOMAP: Reported Mitochondrial DNA Base Substitution Diseases rRNA/tRNA Mutations. 20 May 2016: MITOMAP: Reported Mitochondrial DNA Base Substitution Diseases: Coding and Control Region).

List of abbreviations: MT-DLOOP (regulatory region of the mtDNA), MT-RNR1 (mitochondrially encoded 12S RNA gene), MT-TT (mitochondrially encoded tRNA Threonine gene), MT-CO1 (Mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit 1 gene), MT-ND3 (Mitochondrial NADH Dehydrogenase 3 gene), MT-ND4 (Mitochondrial NADH Dehydrogenase 4 gene), MT-TL2 (Mitochondrially encoded tRNA Leucine 2 gene), MT-ND6 (Mitochondrial NADH Dehydrogenase 6 gene), MT-CO2 (Mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit 2 gene), MT-RNR2 (mitochondrially encoded 12S RNA gene), MT-ND5 (Mitochondrial NADH Dehydrogenase 5 gene), MT-CYB(mitochondrially encoded Cytochrome B gene), rRNA (ribosomal ribonucleic acid), tRNA (transfer ribonucleic acid), Thr (Threonine), Leu (Leucine), Ile (Isoleucine), Tyr (Tyrosine), Asp (Asparagine), Phe (Phenylalanine).
