Carl Fratter (Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust)
Updated information and Green review collated by Carl Fratter May 2019 on behalf of GMS mitochondrial specialist test group: 1 family (4 affecteds) reported with functional studies; also London team have diagnosed a second unrelated family; note that this is a Complex IV subunit.Created: 10 May 2019, 1:02 p.m.
Mode of inheritance
BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Phenotypes
Mitochondrial complex IV deficiency

Ellen McDonagh (Genomics England Curator)
Comment on list classification: This gene was promoted from Amber to Green due to the overall review and evidence assessment from the GMS mitochondrial specialist test group, submitted by Carl Fratter.Created: 10 May 2019, 1:56 p.m.
Comment on list classification: This gene has been demoted to Amber until further evidence is provided. This gene is currently Red on the Mitochondrial disorders panel (code 112, Version 1.141) - further evidence needs to be submitted to support promoting this gene family member to Green.Created: 29 Mar 2019, 1:52 p.m.
