Genes affected

TRNM (HGNC:7492): (mitochondrially encoded tRNA methionine)

MT-ND2 (HGNC:7456): (mitochondrially encoded NADH dehydrogenase 2) Enables NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone) activity. Involved in mitochondrial electron transport, NADH to ubiquinone and mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I assembly. Part of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I. Implicated in Leber hereditary optic neuropathy; multiple sclerosis; myocardial infarction; neurodegenerative disease (multiple); and urinary bladder cancer.

The m.4409T>C variant in MT-TM has been reported in one individual with primary mitochondrial disease (PMID: 9633749). This individual had severe exercise intolerance, muscle atrophy, muscle weakness, chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO), hearing impairment, and lactic acidosis. Leg muscle MRI showed fat infiltration and muscle atrophy. Muscle biopsy showed severe dystrophic features, ragged red fibers, COX-deficient fibers, SDH strongly positive staining, centrally nucleated fibers, fibrosis, and fat infiltration. Electron microscopy showed giant mitochondria with abnormal cristae structure and crystalloid inclusions. The variant was present at 8% in blood, 77% in muscle, and was undetectable in hair. The variant was undetectable in blood from the mother and three siblings (PMID: 9633749; PM6_supporting). This variant is absent in the GenBank dataset, Helix dataset, and gnomAD v3.1.2 (PM2_supporting). MitoTIP predicts the variant is possible benign (46.5 percentile) and HmtVAR predicts the variant is pathogenic (score of 1). Single fiber testing showed higher levels of the variant in COX-negative fibers (69 ± 10%, n = 9) than in COX-positive fibers (39 ±9%, n = 10) p<0.04 (PMID: 9633749). Additional functional characterization showed disruption of the tRNA structure significantly reducing aminoacylation, failure form a stable tertiary complex with associated elongation factors preventing participation in chain elongation, and disrupted tRNA folding (PMID: 18835817; PS3_moderate). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as uncertain significance for primary mitochondrial disease inherited in a mitochondrial manner. This classification was approved by the NICHD/NINDS U24 ClinGen Mitochondrial Disease Variant Curation Expert Panel on May 28, 2024. Mitochondrial DNA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied (PMID: 32906214): PM2_supporting, PM6_supporting, PS3_moderate.
