Identifying the genetic basis for mitochondrial diseases is technically challenging given the size of the mitochondrial proteome and the heterogeneity of disease presentations. Using next-generation exome sequencing, we identified in a patient with severe combined mitochondrial respiratory chain defects and corresponding perturbation in mitochondrial protein synthesis, a homozygous p.Arg323Gln ...
The human mitochondrial genome encodes 22 tRNAs interspersed among the two rRNAs and 11 mRNAs, often without spacers, suggesting that tRNAs must be efficiently excised. Numerous maternally transmitted diseases and syndromes arise from mutations in mitochondrial tRNAs, likely due to defect(s) in tRNA metabolism. We have systematically explored the effect of pathogenic mutations on tRNA(Ile) prec...
Background: Mitochondrial transfer RNAs (tRNA) genes are essential components of protein biosynthesis. These genes are hotspots for mutations. These mutations are associated with a wide spectrum of human disease. Many genetic factors are known in assessment of repeated pregnancy loss (RPL). Objective: The aim of this study was analysis of tRNA Thr and tRNA Pro in women with RPL. Materials and M...
The authors report here the clinical, genetic, molecular and biochemical characterisation of a large five-generation Han Chinese pedigree with maternally transmitted non-syndromic hearing loss. 17 of 35 matrilineal relatives exhibited variable severity and age at onset of sensorineural hearing loss. The average age at onset of hearing loss in matrilineal relatives of this family is 29 years, wh...
RATIONALE Despite maternal transmission of hypertension in some pedigrees, pathophysiology of maternally inherited hypertension remains poorly understood. OBJECTIVE To establish a causative link between mitochondrial dysfunction and essential hypertension. METHOD AND RESULTS A total of 106 subjects from a large Chinese family underwent clinical, genetic, molecular, and biochemical evaluatio...
Rational: Despite maternal transmission of hypertension in some pedigrees, pathophysiology of maternally inherited hypertension remains poorly understood. Objective: To establish a causative link between mitochondrial dysfunction and essential hypertension.

M itochondria are integral to proper cell function, and mutations in its small genome (mtDNA) are associated with many diseases, along with the progression of normal aging [9]. While mtDNA has been extensively studied, not much is known about transcriptional variations of mitochondrial genes [3]. Recently, tRNA modifications have been the focus of intense study owing to their putative role in d...
Recent results from several laboratories have confirmed that human and yeast leucyl- and valyl-tRNA synthetases can rescue the respiratory defects due to mutations in mitochondrial tRNA genes. In this report we show that this effect cannot be ascribed to the catalytic activity per se and that isolated domains of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases and even short peptides thereof have suppressing effects.
BACKGROUND Mitochondrial diseases are characterized by wide phenotypic and genetic variability, but presentations in adults with akinetic rigidity and hyperkinetic movement disorders are rare. OBJECTIVES To describe clinically a subject with progressive neurodegeneration characterized by psychosis, dementia, and akinesia-rigidity, and to associate this phenotype with a novel mitochondrial tra...
We report on pancreatic exocrine dysfunction in families that have the mitochondrial tRNA(Leu)(UUR) gene mutation. These families exhibited maternally inherited diabetes mellitus (DM) and an A to G substitution at nt 3243 of the mitochondrial tRNA(Leu)(UUR) gene (A3243G mutation). Pancreatic necropsy samples from one proband showed accumulation of degenerated mitochondria in pancreatic acinar c...
