Description

MPV17L2 is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 19p13.2. It encodes a mitochondrial inner membrane protein similar to MPV17. The protein is involved in mitochondrial function and maintenance of mitochondrial DNA. Mutations in this gene have been associated with mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 19 (MTDPS19) Loss-of-function mutations lead to reduced mitochondrial DNA copy number and impaired oxidative phosphorylation. OMIM #619325, ClinVar

Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Nonsense and start-loss mutations lead to truncated or absent protein, causing mitochondrial DNA depletion.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No dominant-negative mutations reported.

Pathways

Mitochondrial DNA maintenance

Protein Summary

MPV17L2 is a 162-amino acid protein localized to the mitochondrial inner membrane. It is involved in maintaining mitochondrial DNA integrity and copy number. The protein shares homology with MPV17, a known mitochondrial inner membrane protein. Loss of MPV17L2 function leads to mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome.
