So I'm currently reviewing Biochemistry and I came across an interesting set of mitochondrial dz's and mitochondrial myopathies, which include:
Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy,
Kearns-Sayre Syndrome,
MELAS Syndrome, &
MERRF Syndrome.
How important are these dz for the Step 1. I remember getting a q on MERRF in USMLESteps123 Q-bank, but I don't know if I should even bother knowing them. For those who took it, what do you guys think.
Thanks in advance.
