Rare primary mitochondrial DNA mutations and probable synergistic variants in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy.
<h4>Background</h4>Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a maternally inherited blinding disorder, which in over 90% of cases is due to one of three primary mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) point mutations (m.11778G>A, m.3460G>A and m.14484T>C, respectively in MT-ND4, MT-N...
