Abstract:
Respiratory chain enzymes consist of multiple subunits encoded either by the mitochondrial or by the nuclear genome. Recently the first X-chromosomal mutations in complex I deficient males have been described. Heterozygous female carriers did not seem to be affected. Here, we describe a girl initially presenting with mild muscular hypotonia, a moderate lactic acidosis and an increased beta-hydroxybutyrate/acetoacetate ratio. Biochemical investigations of a muscle biopsy revealed a deficiency in...     »
