Normal function

C2ORF69 encodes a mitochondrial protein that is thought to play a role in respiratory chain function (PMID: 33945503).

Dysfunction and disease

Biallelic LOF mutations in the uncharacterized C2ORF69 gene were found in patients with an AR disorder characterized by mitochondrial dysfunction with CNS abnormalities on imaging including brain atrophy, leukoencephalopathy and other structural abnormalities, progressive microcephaly, liver dysfunction, and recurrent autoinflammation [OMIM: 619423] (PMID: 33945503, 34038740). In addition to early onset muscle hypotonia, developmental delays, failure to thrive, recurrent seizures, and impaired v ision, many showed inflammatory arthritis or osteomyelitis and hematologic abnormalities such as anemia, and some had cardiac abnormalities. Labs may show elevated inflammatory markers, leukocytosis and thrombocytosis, while muscle biopsy can be notable for diastase-resistant PAS+ glycogen accumulation reminiscent of polyglucosan body disease. Of the 20 total affected children identified by Lausberg et al. (2021) and Wong et al. (2021), 12 were confirmed to have inherited homozygous damaging C2orf69 variants, while eight others passed away prior to molecular genetic testing (PMID: 33945503, 34038740). [Load More]
