Sengers syndrome caused by biallelic TIMM29 variants and RNAi silencing in Drosophila orthologue recapitulates the human phenotype

Abstract Purpose Sengers-syndrome (S.S) is a genetic disorder characterized by congenital cataracts, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, skeletal myopathy and lactic acidosis. All reported cases were genetically caused by biallelic mutations in the AGK gene. We herein report a pathogenic variant in TIMM29...
