Mutations in the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) play a critical role in the aging process and a wide variety of age-related diseases. However, it remains unclear when the mutations that drive physiological decline arise. To answer this question, we generated a new mouse model in which mitochondrial mutagenesis can be con...
