Demonstration of a New Pathogenic Mutation in Human Complex I Deficiency: A 5-bp Duplication in the Nuclear Gene Encoding the 18-kD (AQDQ) Subunit

Abstract: We report the cDNA cloning, chromosomal localization, and a mutation in the human nuclear gene encoding the 18-kD (AQDQ) subunit of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I. The cDNA has an open reading frame of 175 amino acids and codes for a protein with a molecular mass of 23.2 kD. Its gene was mapped to chromosome 5. A homozygous 5-bp duplication, destroying a consensus phosphorylation site, in the 18-kD cDNA was found in a complex I-deficient patient. The patient showed normal muscle morphology and a… Show more

“…This is not surprising because many (if not all) subunits of the fungal complex I can be disrupted [5,14]. The first (and yet unique) mutation in nuclear-coded subunits of complex I involved in mitochondrial diseases was found in the AQDQ human homologue of the 21 kDa protein [10]. The patient presented with a multisystemic disorder with a fatal progressive phenotype, owing to a pathological duplication of five base pairs in the gene that altered the C-terminal region and abolished the putative phosphorylation site of the protein [10,11].…”

The patient presented with a multisystemic disorder with a fatal progressive phenotype, owing to a pathological duplication of five base pairs in the gene that altered the C-terminal region and abolished the putative phosphorylation site of the protein [10,11]. The fact that the patient was homozygous for the mutation and originated from two heterozygous parents [10] suggests that a ' loss-of-function ' phenotype is involved.…”
