Abstract:Background: The NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] iron-sulfur protein 6 (NDUFS6) gene encodes for an accessory subunit of the mitochondrial membrane respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase (complex I). Bi-allelic NDUFS6 variants have been linked with a severe disorder mostly reported as a lethal infantile mitochondrial disease (LMID) or Leigh syndrome (LS). Objective: Here, we identified a homozygous variant (c.309 + 5 G > A) in NDUFS6 in one male patient with axonal neuropathy accompanied by loss of small fibe… Show more
