Nuclear genetic defects of oxidative phosphorylation.
ATP generated by oxidative phosphorylation is necessary for the normal function of most cells in the body. Partial deficiencies in this system are an important cause of a large and diverse group of multisystem disorders. As both the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes encode structural components of the enzyme complexes of the oxidative phosphorylation system, the disorders can be transmitted eit...
متن کاملGenetic control of oxidative phosphorylation and experimental models of defects.
Energy in the form of ATP is continually produced by all cells for normal growth and function. Anaerobic glycolysis can provide enough ATP for some cells, but energetic cells such as cardiomyocytes and neurons require a more efficient ATP supply, which can only be provided by mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. Invented by bacteria that became symbiotically associated with other bacteria t...
متن کاملNuclear genetic defects of mitochondrial ATP synthase.
Disorders of ATP synthase, the key enzyme of mitochondrial energy provision belong to the most severe metabolic diseases presenting as early-onset mitochondrial encephalo-cardiomyopathies. Up to now, mutations in four nuclear genes were associated with isolated deficiency of ATP synthase. Two of them, ATP5A1 and ATP5E encode enzyme's structural subunits alpha and epsilon, respectively, while th...
متن کاملAerobic exercise in children with oxidative phosphorylation defects
Fatigue and exercise intolerance are symptoms in children with metabolic myopathy. Frequently this is combined with muscle pain in children with mitochondrial myopathy. Offering therapeutic advice remains challenging in this patient group. Here we describe five children above the age of four years, with normal intelligence, myopathy, exercise intolerance, motor developmental delay, and fatigue,...
متن کاملCellular Adaptations to Oxidative Phosphorylation Defects in Cancer
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) somatic mutations or mutations in nuclear genes encoding mitochondrial proteins important for the assembly, activity, or maintenance of the individual oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complexes have been observed in tumors. Although the functional consequence of such mutations is unclear at the moment, retrograde signaling in response to OXPHOS defects can activate v...
