Symbol MTDPS12
Location 4q35.1
Name mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 12 (cardiomyopathic type)
Corresponding gene SLC25A4
Main clinical features
  • mitochondrial disorder characterized by childhood onset of slowly progressive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and generalized skeletal myopathy resulting in exercise intolerance with muscle weakness and atrophy
  • skeletal muscle biopsy shows ragged red fibers, mtDNA depletion, and accumulation of abnormal mitochondria
  • including dominant forms with severe congenital hypotonia and profound muscle weakness necessitating artificial ventilation, and death in early infancy (PMID: 27693233))
  • Genetic determination autosomal recessive
    autosomal dominant
    Function/system disorder cardiovascular
    neuromuscular
    Type disease
    Remark(s)
  • c.239G>A mutation predicted to substitute the arginine at position 80 to a histidine and three further subjects had a c.703C>G mutation predicted to substitute arginine 235 for a glycine residue are associated to lethal forms (PMID: 27693233))
