Abstract

More than 70 different point mutations in human mitochondrial tRNA genes are correlated with severe disorders, including fatal cardiopathies, encephalopathies, myopathies, and others. So far, investigation of the molecular impact(s) of mutations has focused on the affected tRNA itself by seeking structural and/or functional perturbations capable of interfering with synthesis of the 13 mitochondrion-encoded subunits of respiratory chain complexes. Here, a proteomic approach was used to investigate whether such mutations would affect the pattern of mitochondrial proteins at a broader level. Analysis of several hundred mitochondrial proteins from sibling cybrid cell lines by two-dimensional electrophoresis, an approach that takes into account all regulatory steps of mitochondrial and nuclear gene expression, indeed reveals a number of up- and downregulated proteins when healthy and single-point-mutation-carrying mitochondria representative of either MELAS or MERRF syndrome were compared. Assignment by mass spectrometry of the two proteins which exhibit obvious large quantitative decreases in the levels of both pathologic mitochondria identified nuclear-encoded subunits of cytochrome c oxidase, a respiratory chain complex. This clearly shows a linkage between the effects of mutations in mitochondrial tRNA genes and the steady-state level of nuclear-encoded proteins in mitochondria. It opens new routes toward a large-scale exploration of potential proteic partners involved in the genotype-phenotype correlation of mitochondrial disorders.

  • Expression levels of nuclear-encoded CIV subunits Vb and VIa were dramatically reduced in both m.8344A N G and m.3243A N G mutant cybrid cell lines relative to wild-type.

    “In particular, the expression levels of two proteins, both nuclear-encoded subunits of CIV (Vb and VIa), were shown to be dramatically reduced in both mutant cell lines relative to their sibling wild-type.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
