mtDNAmanager: a Web-based tool for the management and quality analysis of mitochondrial DNA control-region sequences

Abstract: Background: For the past few years, scientific controversy has surrounded the large number of errors in forensic and literature mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) data. However, recent research has shown that using mtDNA phylogeny and referring to known mtDNA haplotypes can be useful for checking the quality of sequence data.

“…This specific U5b haplotype, characterized by the specific mutation in np 16271, has never before been described in France (Rousselet and Mangin, 1998;Dubut et al, 2004;Richard et al, 2007), or in the databases of modern populations (Richards et al, 2000; GenBank database; mtDNA manager database, Lee et al, 2008;Genographic dataset, Behar et al, 2007). Subhaplogroup U5b has also been encountered in German Neolithic remains from the Corded Ware Culture (Haak et al, 2008) and in the hunter-gatherers studied by Bramanti et al (2009), although in both instances, the branches concerned were distinct from the U5b in the Prissé sample.…”

“…For mtDnA, the majority of haplogroups (95%) were of sub-saharan origin with exception of X and X2d that were of West eurasian origin and D4k and n9b that were of east Asian origin [8].…”

“…sequences were obtained with ABI PRIsm Big Dye Terminator and dRhodamine Terminator Cycle Sequencing Ready Reaction Kits, with amplitaq DNA polymerase FS, and were detected in an ABI 3100 Avant sequencer. Haplogroups were classified based on the different polymorphic positions of these two hypervariable regions using the software mtDNA manager-forensic mtDNA database [8].…”

“…To ensure data quality by a redundant approach to data generation and analysis [13], duplicate amplifications were sequenced in both the forward and reverse directions, and the resultant consensus sequences were analyzed using mtDNAmanager (available from http://mtmanager.yonsei. ac.kr/) to estimate the most probable mtDNA haplogroup based on the patterns of shared haplogroup-specific or haplogroup-associated polymorphisms in the control region [14]. Sequences have been submitted and will be searchable via the EMPOP database (http://www.empop.org) under accession numbers EMP00287-EMP00288.…”
