Abstract
Background: Isolated complex III deficiencies are caused by mutations in
the mitochondrial CytB gene, in the BCS1L gene coding for a CIII
assembly factor and in the UQCRQ gene that codes for the ubiquinone
binding protein of complex III.
Objective: Description of clinical features, mitochondrial function and
molecular genetic analysis in a patient with an isolated complex III deficiency.
Patient: A 17 year old boy, born to consanguineous parents who presented
with hypoglycemia, glycosuria, deafness, growth retardation, Fanconi
Syndrome and severe lactic acidosis in the neonatal period.
Methods: Activities and assembly of OXPHOS complexes were investigated
spectrophotometrically and by BN-PAGE. mt-DNAwas screened for
deletions. Cytochrome b (CytB) and the BCS1L gene were sequenced.
Results: Isolated complex III deficiency was detected in the patient's
skeletal muscle. Using BN-PAGE blotting a complex III of lower
molecular weight was detected. Staining the 2D reveals a missing subunit.
No mutation was detected in the mitochondrial CytB gene. Sequence
analysis of BCS1L revealed a novel homozygous point mutation p.M48V.
Conclusion: The patients decreased complex III activity is most likely
caused by incomplete assembly of complex III due to the homozygous p.
