Tiivistelmä

Leigh syndrome is the most common phenotype of mitochondrial disorders in children. This study demonstrates clinical, neuroradiological, and molecular genetic findings in siblings with Leigh syndrome and isolated complex I assembly defect associated with intronic c.16 + 5G > A variant in the NDUFS7 gene. Whole exome sequencing was carried out to identify the causative variant. The gene and protein expression of NDUFS7 were studied using patient-derived fibroblasts. Assembly of mitochondrial respiratory chain enzymes was analyzed using Blue Native PAGE. This study shows that the NDUFS7 c.16 + 5G > A variant (rs375282422) has a causative role in Leigh syndrome. Evolution of neuroimaging findings related to this gene variant are demonstrated.
