Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine homozygous mutation c.3G>A, p.M1I in the gene encoding acylglycerol kinase has been identified in two brothers who presented with vascular strokes, lactic acidosis, cardiomyopathy and cataracts, abnormal muscle cell histopathology and mitochondrial function. One proband had very abnormal mitochondria with citrate synthase crystals visible in electron micrographs, associated with markedly high citrate synthase activity. Homozygous c.979A>T, p.K327* mutation has been identified in a family with four affected members, of which two have been examined. They presented with similar clinical symptoms, but no strokes. Postmortem heart and skeletal muscle tissues showed low complex I, III and IV activities in the heart, but normal in the muscle. Skin fibroblasts showed elevated lactate/pyruvate ratios and low complex I+III activity Homo sapiens
