Simultaneous RNA- and mtDNA-sequencing also allowed analysis of mtDNA replication throughout the cell-cycle, which we find to be fully relaxed. However, depletion of mtDNA results in cell-cycle slowing across all cell-cycle stages, and not just the G1-S checkpoint.

Using #DamID-seq, we found that only ~1/3 of the differentially-expressed genes was directly bound by the canonical stress-response transcription factor Atf4, with many more factors identified by #SCENIC for future exploration.

Perturbation of Tfam, Opa1 or Polg caused mtDNA depletion, which increased heteroplasmy variance. Maybe not so surprising, but simultaneous RNA-seq then allowed us to study the single-cell transcriptional response to mtDNA depletion, which was much stronger to Opa1, than to Tfam or Polg gRNAs.
