Excerpt

In our earlier study [1], we reported the association of primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) with non-synonymous mutations in the ATPase6 gene. It has been claimed that these changes are phylogenetic dependent and are not associated with the POI [2]. It has also been quoted that out of the six mutations reported in the ATPase6 gene, five were attributable to distinct south Asian, West Eurasian and East Asian haplogroups’. However, it is not acceptable at this point of view as five different ethnicities or haplogroups cannot be classified based on only these five different mitochondrial substitutions. …
