CHCHD10

May be involved in the maintenance of mitochondrial organization and mitochondrial cristae structure.

Frontotemporal dementia and/or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 2

FTDALS2

A neurodegenerative disorder characterized by frontotemporal dementia and/or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in affected individuals. There is high intrafamilial variation. Frontotemporal dementia is characterized by frontal and temporal lobe atrophy associated with neuronal loss, gliosis, and dementia. Patients exhibit progressive changes in social, behavioral, and/or language function. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is characterized by the death of motor neurons in the brain, brainstem, and spinal cord, resulting in fatal paralysis.

None

The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. The pathological events leading to disease involve fragmentation of the mitochondrial network, mitochondrial ultrastructural abnormalities including loss, disorganization and dilatation of cristae, and mitochondrial dysfunction associated with respiratory chain deficiency (PubMed:24934289).

Spinal muscular atrophy, Jokela type

SMAJ

An autosomal dominant, slowly progressive, lower motor neuron disease. SMAJ is characterized by adult-onset of muscle cramps and fasciculations affecting the proximal and distal muscles of the upper and lower limbs. The disorder results in weakness and mild muscle atrophy later in life.

None

The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Myopathy, isolated mitochondrial, autosomal dominant

IMMD

A mitochondrial myopathy presenting with severe exercise intolerance, progressive proximal weakness, and lactic acidemia. The disorder is slowly progressive, with later involvement of facial muscles, muscles of the upper limbs, and distal muscles.

None

The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Ubiquitously expressed. Higher expression is observed in heart and liver.

• Mitochondrion intermembrane space
• Enriched at the cristae junctions.
