Genes affected
COQ4 (HGNC:19693): (coenzyme Q4) This gene encodes a component of the coenzyme Q biosynthesis pathway. Coenzyme Q, an essential component of the electron transport chain, shuttles electrons between complexes I or II to complex III of the mitochondrial transport chain. This protein appears to play a structural role in stabilizing a complex that contains most of the coenzyme Q biosynthesis enzymes. Mutations in this gene are associated with mitochondrial disorders linked to coenzyme Q deficiency. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 35 of the COQ4 protein (p.Gly35Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs141078819, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with COQ4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 580739). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The serine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The c.103G>A (p.G35S) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the COQ4 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 103, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 35 to be replaced by a serine (S). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
