Genes affected
COX15 (HGNC:2263): (cytochrome c oxidase assembly homolog COX15) Cytochrome c oxidase (COX), the terminal component of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, catalyzes the electron transfer from reduced cytochrome c to oxygen. This component is a heteromeric complex consisting of 3 catalytic subunits encoded by mitochondrial genes and multiple structural subunits encoded by nuclear genes. The mitochondrially-encoded subunits function in electron transfer, and the nuclear-encoded subunits may function in the regulation and assembly of the complex. This nuclear gene encodes a protein which is not a structural subunit, but may be essential for the biogenesis of COX formation and may function in the hydroxylation of heme O, according to the yeast mutant studies. This protein is predicted to contain 5 transmembrane domains localized in the mitochondrial inner membrane. Alternative splicing of this gene generates two transcript variants diverging in the 3' region. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
CUTC (HGNC:24271): (cutC copper transporter) Members of the CUT family of copper transporters are associated with copper homeostasis and are involved in the uptake, storage, delivery, and efflux of copper (Gupta et al., 1995 [PubMed 7635807]; Li et al., 2005 [PubMed 16182249]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Functional studies in yeast demonstrate a damaging effect of R217W on enzymatic activity (Swenson et al., 2016); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 15863660, 21412973, 12474143, 23299917, 15235026, 26940873, 32232962, 31967322, 34440436) -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 217 of the COX15 protein (p.Arg217Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs28939711, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with mitochondrial complex IV deficiency (PMID: 12474143, 21412973, 31967322, 32232962). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as C700T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6175). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.649C>T (p.R217W) alteration is located in exon 5 (coding exon 5) of the COX15 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 649, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 217 to be replaced by a tryptophan (W). Based on data from the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) database, the COX15 c.649C>T alteration was observed in <0.01% (8/251494) of total alleles studied. This mutation has been identified in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state in two individuals with Leigh syndrome (Oquendo, 2004; Alfadhel, 2011). It was also identified in conjunction with an intronic variant in a case with early-onset, fatal hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (Antonicka, 2003). In yeast cells, the the corresponding variant to p.R217W was unable to support respiratory growth in synthase-deficient strain and mitochondria exhibited impaired levels of heme a, were deficient in CcO activity, and had decreased steady-state levels of core CcO subunits (Swenson, 2016). The p.R217W alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
