Journal ArticleDOI
Methylation of 12S rRNA is necessary for in vivo stability of the small subunit of the mammalian mitochondrial ribosome.

TL;DR: The results thus show that TFB1M is a nonredundant dimethyltransferase in mammalian mitochondria and provide a possible explanation for the universal conservation of adenine dimethylation of rRNA by showing a critical role in ribosome maintenance.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Rec recessive loss-of-function SLC12A5 mutations in patients with a severe infantile-onset pharmacoresistant epilepsy syndrome, epilepsy of infancy with migrating focal seizures (EIMFS), contribute to loss of KCC2 activity, thereby impairing normal synaptic inhibition and promoting neuronal excitability in this early-ONSet epileptic encephalopathy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adenosine Kinase Deficiency Disrupts the Methionine Cycle and Causes Hypermethioninemia, Encephalopathy, and Abnormal Liver Function

Blom,Jordi Asin Cayuela,Martin Engvall,Martin Engvall,Nicole Lesko,Nicole Lesko,Shanti Balasubramaniam,Göran Brandberg,Maria Halldin,Maria Falkenberg,Cornelis Jakobs,Desirée E.C. Smith,Eduard A.

TL;DR: ADK deficiency is a previously undescribed, severe IEM shedding light on a functional link between the methionine cycle and adenosine metabolism, and two siblings affected by severe developmental delay and liver dysfunction were studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rescue of primary ubiquinone deficiency due to a novel COQ7 defect using 2,4–dihydroxybensoic acid
Christoph Freyer,Henrik Stranneheim,Karin Naess,Arnaud Mourier,Andrea Felser,Camilla Maffezzini,Nicole Lesko,Helene Bruhn,Martin Engvall,Rolf Wibom,Michela Barbaro,Yvonne Hinze,Måns Magnusson,Robin Andeer,Rolf Zetterström,Ulrika von Döbeln,Anna Wredenberg,Anna Wedell +17 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the coenzyme Q analogue 2,4-dihydroxybensoic acid (2,4DHB) was able to specifically bypass the COQ7 deficiency, increase cellular coen enzyme Q levels and rescue the biochemical defect in patient fibroblasts.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the findings from 4437 individuals (3219 patients and 1218 relatives) who have been analyzed by whole genome sequencing (WGS) at the Genomic Medicine Center Karolinska-Rare Diseases (GMCK-RD) since mid-2015.
