Primary Mitochondrial Disease
- Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Deficiency
Disorders, usually caused by nuclear genes involved in mitochondrial protein production, that reduce several respiratory chain complexes at once and often cause severe multisystem disease in childhood.
- 1 GenCC submitter rates it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
Knowing can end a diagnostic search and guide surveillance and supportive care.
How C2orf69 is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 3.7 kb of the gene's 17 kb; 1,158 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads C2orf69
2
positions in C2orf69 where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 17 kb of C2orf69, introns included, not only the 3.7 kb of exons.
