Description

MRPL11 encodes a 39S subunit protein of the mitochondrial ribosome. This protein is a component of the large mitochondrial ribosomal subunit and is involved in mitochondrial translation. It is a nuclear-encoded gene that is essential for mitochondrial protein synthesis and oxidative phosphorylation.

Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.245G>A (p.Arg82His) Missense Rare Reduced mitochondrial translation and complex I activity
c.332C>T (p.Pro111Leu) Missense Rare Impaired ribosome assembly
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Missense mutations (e.g., p.Arg82His, p.Pro111Leu) reduce mitochondrial translation, leading to combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No dominant-negative mutations reported.

Pathways

• Mitochondrial translation (Reactome: R-HSA-5389840)
• Organelle biogenesis and maintenance (Reactome: R-HSA-1852241)

Protein Summary

MRPL11 is a 39S mitochondrial ribosomal protein that forms part of the large subunit of the mitochondrial ribosome. It is essential for mitochondrial protein synthesis, particularly for the translation of 13 mtDNA-encoded subunits of the oxidative phosphorylation system. Defects in MRPL11 impair complex I and IV assembly, leading to mitochondrial disease.
