Four of six mRNAs, namely, ENSG00000198763 (MT-ND2), ENSG00000198786 (MT-ND5), ENSG00000198840 (MT-ND3) and ENSG00000269028 (MTRNR2L12), were indicated to have significant differences between T1DM patients and control subjects and followed the same tendency as the sequencing data. Here, MT-ND2 is linked to type 1 diabetes mellitus.
