Genes affected

LETM1 (HGNC:6556): (leucine zipper and EF-hand containing transmembrane protein 1) This gene encodes a protein that is localized to the inner mitochondrial membrane. The protein functions to maintain the mitochondrial tubular shapes and is required for normal mitochondrial morphology and cellular viability. Mutations in this gene cause Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome, a complex malformation syndrome caused by the deletion of parts of the distal short arm of chromosome 4. Related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 8, 15 and 19. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

LETM1 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

neurodegeneration, childhood-onset, with multisystem involvement due to mitochondrial dysfunction
