Liberties of the genome: insertions of mitochondrial DNA fragments into nuclear genome by M. V. Golubenko, V. P. Puzyrev

“…The transition of detached fragments of mitochondrial DNA into the nucleus and their integration into chromosomal DNA is a special kind of genetic variability that highlights the relation between the two genomes and their interaction in a eukaryotic cell. The human genome contains several hundreds of insertions of mtDNA fragments (NUMTS). …”
