Mitochondria are the tiny compartments (隔间) inside nearly every cell of the body that transform food into useable energy.They have their own DNA,which does not affect characteristics such as appearance.Defective mitochondria are passed down only from the mother.They can lead to brain damage,muscle wasting,heart failure and blindness.The technique uses a modified version to combine the DNA of the two parents with the healthy mitochondria of a donor woman.It results in babies with 0.1% of their DNA from the second woman and is a permanent change that would be passed down through the generations.
