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 affects codon 125 of the COQ4 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the COQ4 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs375096994, gnomAD 0.01%). 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: 476180). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
