A high mutation load of m.14597A>G in MT-ND6 causes Leigh syndrome
Abstract Leigh syndrome (LS) is an early-onset progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with mitochondrial deficiency. m.14597A>G (p.Ile26Thr) in the MT-ND6 gene was reported to cause Leberʼs hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) or dementia/dysarthria. In previous reports, less than 90% he...
