Genes affected
TRMU (HGNC:25481): (tRNA mitochondrial 2-thiouridylase) This nuclear gene encodes a mitochondrial tRNA-modifying enzyme. The encoded protein catalyzes the 2-thiolation of uridine on the wobble positions of tRNA(Lys), tRNA(Glu), and tRNA(Gln), resulting in the formation of 5-taurinomethyl-2-thiouridine moieties. Mutations in this gene may cause transient infantile liver failure. Polymorphisms in this gene may also influence the severity of deafness caused by mitochondrial 12S ribosomal RNA mutations. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Identified as heterozygous in an individual with infantile liver failure, hepatomegaly, current age 5 of years; A second variant was not described (Boczonadi et al., 2015); Analysis in patient cells harboring G14S showed reduced mitochondrial enzymatic activities of Complex I and IV and the 2-thiouridylation levels of the mitochondrial tRNAs were markedly reduced (Zeharia et al., 2009); 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: 19732863, 25407320, 21910628) -

TRMU-related disorder Uncertain:1
May 16, 2024
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The TRMU c.40G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly14Ser. This variant was reported in an individual with acute infantile liver failure (Zeharia et al 2009. PubMed ID: 19732863). Biochemical experiments revealed this patient had reduced mitochondrial enzymatic activity, and was heterozygous for the c.40G>A variant on the paternal allele with a seemingly non-expressing maternal allele (Zeharia et al 2009. PubMed ID: 19732863). This variant is reported in 0.068% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD, which may be too common to be a primary cause of disease. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
