Disease relevance of MPV17

 

High impact information on MPV17

  • MPV17 encodes an inner mitochondrial membrane protein and is mutated in infantile hepatic mitochondrial DNA depletion [2].
  • Identification of a single missense mutation in patients with NNH confirms that the disease is probably due to a founder effect and extends the phenotypic spectrum associated with MPV17 mutations [3].
  • M-LP (Mpv17-like protein) has been identified as a new protein that has high sequence homology with Mpv17 protein, a peroxisomal membrane protein involved in the development of early onset glomerulosclerosis [4].
  • Human Mpv17-like protein is localized in peroxisomes and regulates expression of antioxidant enzymes [5].
