Abbreviations: LHON – Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy,
also reported as polymorphism,
reported as somatic (rather than inherited) mutation, Het – reported as a mixture of wild-type and mutated mtDNAs in affected patients, Hom – reported as mutated mtDNAs only in patients, Het/Homo – reported as heteroplasmy in some patients but or homoplasmy in others.
