Description

In a female patient with chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia, mild myopathy, and exercise intolerance, Raffelsberger et al. (2001) identified a single basepair deletion at position 5885 (5885delT) in the mitochondrial tRNA tyrosine gene. The deletion was found only in the patient's skeletal muscle tissue and not in her blood, in the blood of her relatives, or in more than 300 controls, suggesting somatic mutation. The deletion occurs in the aminoacyl-acceptor stem of the tRNA, a position that may produce a nonfunctional tRNA by affecting formation of secondary and tertiary protein structure.
