Mitochondrial disorders
Gene: PDK3
After NHS Genomic Medicine Service consideration, the rating of this gene has not been changed and remains Red.
Note from GMS reviewers: Phenotype from mutations from this gene is not that of Mitochondrial disease - appropriate to be green on Neuropathy panel(NT). Not sure there is sufficient evidence that this can be classified as primary mitochondrial disease, but may be appropriate to include elsewhere in white matter disorders panel (C&S).Created: 1 Feb 2023, 12:16 p.m. | Last Modified: 1 Feb 2023, 12:43 p.m.
Panel Version: 3.6
At least two variants in three unrelated families reported (founder effect ruled out). Functional analyses conducted in patient fibroblasts, cell lines, and in vivo animal model (C. elegans) show that the recurrent variant (p.R158H) increased phosphorylation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and thereby leads to significant reductions in ATP levels. Abnormal mitochondrial networks and mitochondrial trafficking were also reduced in affected axons.
Although energy metabolism defects and mitochondrial abnormalities are observed, the CMT phenotype presented by patients may not be relevant to this panel. For this reason, inclusion of PDK3 will be reviewed by the test evaluation group at the next GMS panel update.Created: 5 Jan 2022, 12:41 p.m. | Last Modified: 5 Jan 2022, 12:41 p.m.
