Description

Chinnery et al. (2001) described 2 pedigrees with Leber optic atrophy (535000) that harbored the same novel point mutation in the MTND6 gene, i.e., a 14495A-G change resulting in a leu-to-ser substitution. The mutation was heteroplasmic in both families, and sequencing of the mitochondrial genome confirmed that the mutation arose on 2 independent occasions.
