Identification of a novel splice site mutation in the SERAC1 gene responsible for the MEGDHEL syndrome
Résumé
MEGDHEL is an autosomal recessive syndrome defined as 3-MEthylGlutaconic aciduria (3-MGA) with Deafness, Hepatopathy, Encephalopathy, and Leigh-like syndrome on magnetic resonance imaging, due to mutations in the SERAC1 (Serine Active Site Containing 1) gene, which plays a role in the mitochondrial cardiolipin metabolism.
