  1. The table presents nucleotide positions, based on the reference sequence NC_012920.1, included in the cloned mitochondrial plasmids. 3460G indicates the normal G nucleotide at position 3460 and 3460A indicates the mutated A at position 3460; similarly, for 11778 and 14484 plasmids. The synthetic diagnostic control mixes are generated by mixing the indicated plasmids at 1.5 ng/μl. For a diagnostic test, 1 μl of a diagnostic control mix is used
