Preferred Label : Progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial dna deletions, autosomal dominant 4;

Symbol : PEOA4;

CISMeF acronym : PEOA4;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Progressive external ophthalmoplegia, autosomal dominant 4;

Description : Progressive external ophthalmoplegia-4 is an autosomal dominant form of mitochondrial disease that variably affects skeletal muscle, the nervous system, the liver, and the gastrointestinal tract. Age at onset ranges from infancy to adulthood. The phenotype ranges from relatively mild, with adult-onset skeletal muscle weakness and weakness of the external eye muscles, to severe, with a multisystem disorder characterized by delayed psychomotor development, lactic acidosis, constipation, and liver involvement (summary by Young et al., 2011). For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of autosomal dominant progressive external ophthalmoplegia, see PEOA1 (157640).;

Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the DNA polymerase gamma-2 gene (POLG2, 604983.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Increased serum lactate; Increased serum creatine kinase; Abnormal liver enzymes (in some patients);

Prefixed ID : #610131;
