ISOLATED CYTOCHROME C OXIDASE DEFICIENCY

Alternate names

ISOLATED CYTOCHROME C OXIDASE DEFICIENCY Is also known as isolated mitochondrial respiratory chain complex iv deficiency, cox deficiency, isolated cox deficiency, cytochrome c oxidase deficiency

Description

Complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase; {EC 1.9.3.1}) is the terminal enzyme of the respiratory chain and consists of 13 polypeptide subunits, 3 of which are encoded by mitochondrial DNA. The 3 mitochondrially encoded proteins in the cytochrome oxidase complex are the actual catalytic subunits that carry out the electron transport function (Saraste, 1983). See {123995} for discussion of some of the nuclear-encoded subunits.Shoubridge (2001) provided a comprehensive review of cytochrome c oxidase deficiency and noted that most isolated COX deficiencies are inherited as autosomal recessive disorders caused by mutations in nuclear-encoded genes; mutations in the mtDNA-encoded COX subunit genes are relatively rare.

Most common symptoms of ISOLATED CYTOCHROME C OXIDASE DEFICIENCY

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Short stature
  • Generalized hypotonia
