Mitochondrial DNA is encapsulated along with intact cells. There is a pre designed mtDNA virtual panel available on Tapestri Designer. Custom panel design for mitochondrial DNA is supported in Tapestri Designer via custom reference genomes. Downstream data analysis should be considered exploratory.
Please reach out to support@missionbio.com when incorporating mtDNA into experimental plans. The relative abundance of mtDNA compared to genomic DNA has implications on panel design and experimental workflow.
