The scientists looked at a process known as meiosis, which unlike normal cell division (mitosis) has two rounds of nuclear division, to ensure that when sex cells fuse with each other, they have two copies of each chromosome — one from each parent!

There are a number of viruses that have a similar way of copying themselves — a process that reverses the normal flow of information in cells, which is where the term «retro» comes from — and their central machinery for replication may be a bridge from the original life - forms on this planet to what we know as life today.
Since genes in our chromosomes are very, very much better protected from mutations than the mitochondrial DNA is, we can rely on the chromosomal copies carrying on working in very nearly all our cells for much longer than a currently normal lifetime.
That way, even if the original genes in the mitochondrial are deleted, the backup copies will be able to supply the proteins needed to keep normal energy production going, allowing the cellular power plants to continue humming along normally and preventing them from entering into the toxic, mutant metabolic state.
The researchers found that patients from MODY3 families had one of several different mutations in the gene for hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha (HNF -1-alpha) but healthy subjects had normal copies of the gene.
Normal cells should contain just two copies of the gene (one copy from each parent), which is involved in embryo development.
The Ionis ASO doesn't distinguish between RNA coming from the normal and mutant copy of the gene, so it lowers the amount of both the normal and mutant protein.
