" /> Mitochondrial complex III deficiency, nuclear type 2 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Mitochondrial complex III deficiency, nuclear type 2;

Symbol : MC3DN2;

CISMeF acronym : MC3DN2;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Description : Mitochondrial complex III deficiency nuclear type 2 is an autosomal recessive severe neurodegenerative disorder that usually presents in childhood, but may show later onset, even in adulthood. Affected individuals have motor disability, with ataxia, apraxia, dystonia, and dysarthria, associated with necrotic lesions throughout the brain. Most patients also have cognitive impairment and axonal neuropathy and become severely disabled later in life (summary by Ghezzi et al., 2011). The disorder may present clinically as spinocerebellar ataxia or Leigh syndrome, or with psychiatric disturbances (Morino et al., 2014; Atwal, 2013; Nogueira et al., 2013). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of mitochondrial complex III deficiency, see MC3DN1 (124000).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the tetratricopeptide repeat domain 19 gene (TTC19, 613814.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Decreased mitochondrial complex III activity in muscle;

Prefixed ID : #615157;
