Genes affected
MRPS34 (HGNC:16618): (mitochondrial ribosomal protein S34) Mammalian mitochondrial ribosomal proteins are encoded by nuclear genes and help in protein synthesis within the mitochondrion. Mitochondrial ribosomes (mitoribosomes) consist of a small 28S subunit and a large 39S subunit. They have an estimated 75% protein to rRNA composition compared to prokaryotic ribosomes, where this ratio is reversed. Another difference between mammalian mitoribosomes and prokaryotic ribosomes is that the latter contain a 5S rRNA. Among different species, the proteins comprising the mitoribosome differ greatly in sequence, and sometimes in biochemical properties, which prevents easy recognition by sequence homology. This gene encodes a 28S subunit protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
EME2 (HGNC:27289): (essential meiotic structure-specific endonuclease subunit 2) EME2 forms a heterodimer with MUS81 (MIM 606591) that functions as an XPF (MIM 278760)-type flap/fork endonuclease in DNA repair (Ciccia et al., 2007 [PubMed 17289582]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 06, 2024Variant summary: MRPS34 c.94C>T (p.Gln32X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00044 in 52648 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.94C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Deficiency 32 or Leigh syndrome (Lake_2017, Shen_2023). Western blot analysis using fibroblasts from one patient showed a significant reduction in the MRPS34 protein, as well as reduction in complexes CI and CIV (Lake_2017). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28777931, 35326425, 37385809). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 438635). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 22, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln32*) in the MRPS34 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MRPS34 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 28777931). This variant is present in population databases (rs763672163, gnomAD 0.1%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Leigh syndrome, transient metabolic acidosis and hemodynamic instability related to tubulopathy (PMID: 28777931). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 438635). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
