1例进行性运动不耐受、近端无力和骨骼肌复合物III缺乏症患者的线粒体DNA细胞色素B基因发生错义突变(G15762 A)。导致高度保守氨基酸(G339E)取代的突变在患者的肌肉中是异质性的(85%),并且不存在于100个不同种族背景的个体中。这些数据有力地表明,这种分子缺陷是肌病的主要原因。
A patient with progressive exercise intolerance, proximal weakness, and complex III deficiency in skeletal muscle had a missense mutation in the cytochrome b gene of mitochondrial DNA (G15762A). The mutation, which leads to the substitution of a highly conserved amino acid (G339E), was heteroplasmic (85%) in the patient's muscle and was not present in 100 individuals of different ethnic backgrounds. These data strongly suggest that this molecular defect is the primary cause of the myopathy.
