Genes affected
NDUFAF3 (HGNC:29918): (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex assembly factor 3) This gene encodes a mitochondrial complex I assembly protein that interacts with complex I subunits. Mutations in this gene cause mitochondrial complex I deficiency, a fatal neonatal disorder of the oxidative phosphorylation system. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2009]
DALRD3 (HGNC:25536): (DALR anticodon binding domain containing 3) The exact function of this gene is not known. It encodes a protein with a DALR anticodon binding domain similar to that of class Ia aminoacyl tRNA synthetases. This gene is located in a cluster of genes (with a complex sense-anti-sense genome architecture) on chromosome 3, and contains two micro RNA (miRNA) precursors (mir-425 and mir-191) in one of its introns. Preferential expression of this gene (the miRNAs and other genes in the cluster) in testis suggests a role of this gene in spermatogenesis (PMID:19906709). [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2013]

Mitochondrial complex I deficiency Uncertain:1
Oct 20, 2014
Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Asp61X variant in NDUFAF3 has not been previously reported in individuals with mitochondrial complex I deficiency, but has been identified in 0.02% (2/8250) of European American chromosomes by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 61, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. While complete loss of NDUFAF3 function has been described in a several individuals with mitochondrial complex I deficiency (Saada 2009), the gene-disease association has not been fully established. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of the p.Asp61X variant is uncertain.
