Thus, the novel clinical implication of this study is to screen for BCS1L mutations only if CIII is dysfunctioning or lacking Rieske protein, and to assess 232A-->G mutation in cases with GRACILE syndrome.
In the present study, we report the molecular defect causing this metabolic disorder, by identifying a homozygous missense mutation that results in an S78G amino acid change in the BCS1L gene in Finnish patients with GRACILE syndrome, as well as five different mutations in three British infants.
