Özet

Combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 35 (COXPD35) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder associated with homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in the tRNA isopentenyltransferase (TRIT1) gene in chromosome 1p34.2. To date, only 10 types of allelic variants in the TRIT1 gene have been previously reported in 9 patients with COXPD35. Herein, we describe a case with a novel homozygous missense variant in TRIT1. A 6-year, 6-month-old boy presented with global developmental delay, microcephaly, intractable seizures, and failure to thrive. The other main clinical manifestations were intellectual disability, spastic tetraparesis, truncal hypotonia, malnutrition, polyuria and polydipsia, ketotic hypoglycemia, dysmorphic facial features, strabismus, bicuspid aortic valve, and nephrolithiasis. The detailed biochemical, radiological, and metabolic evaluations were unremarkable. Chromosomal analysis confirmed a normal male 46,XY karyotype and the array comparative genomic hybridization analysis revealed no abnormalities. We identified a novel homozygous missense variant of c.246G>C (p.Met82Ile) in the TRIT1 gene, and the variant was confirmed by Sanger sequencing. The present case is the first report describing strabismus, ketotic hypoglycemia, nephrolithiasis, and bicuspid aortic valve in TRIT1-related COXPD35. This study expands the genotype-phenotype spectrum of TRIT1-related COXPD35.
