The analysis of somatic mutations in tumor tissues from PCa patients pointed out their presence in genes coding for rRNA (mt-RNR1 and mt-RNR2), transfer RNA (tRNA) and the protein-coding gene mitochondrially encoded ATP synthase membrane subunit 6 (mt-ATP6), that encodes the ATP synthase Fo subunit 6 (or subunit/chain A). The gene discussed is MT-ATP6; the disease is posterior cortical atrophy.
