Abstract excerpt
Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) has been mainly (90-95 %) associated to one of three variants: m.3460G>A, m.11778G>A, m.14484T>C. Herein, a screening method was developed for its detection, supporting clinical/therapeutics decision. It relies on real-time PCR with High-Resolution Melting (HRM) analysis. Variant classification is made using HRM Software and quality controls. A total of 101 samples were...
