Abstract excerpt
Assessment of pathogenic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) single-nucleotide variant (SNV) heteroplasmy is important for molecular diagnostics, yet rapid visual profiling remains analytically challenging because an assay must combine single-nucleotide allelic discrimination, mutant-fraction-associated readout, and suitable target access. Herein, we report VISTA (visual identification and stratification of targeted mtDNA...
