ANIMAL & CELL MODELS

	after 10
	-12 days of life the TK2-/- mice display an ataxic phenotype with severely impaired motor coordination and gait, and abnormal limb-clasping reflexes
	altered mitochondrial morphology in brown but not in white adipocytes from TK2-deficient mice
	MtDNA levels in spleen from the Tk2-deficient mice were decreased 50p100, but in contrast to all other investigated organs, both thymus and peripheral blood leukocytes showed normal mtDNA levels
