Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (mt-aaRSs) are a group of proteins encoded by nuclear DNA that play a crucial role in mitochondrial protein synthesis. Mitochondrial diseases caused by mt-aaRS variants are phenotypically heterogenous but often present with significant neurological features such as childhood-onset encephalopathy and seizures. As such, these conditions are a diagnostic challenge. We present...
