The expanding clinical phenotype of the tRNA(Leu(UUR)) A-->G mutation at np 3243 of mitochondrial DNA: diabetic embryopathy associated with mitochondrial cytopathy.

Abstract excerpt

We describe a family which demonstrates and expands the extreme clinical variability now known to be associated with the A-->G transition at nucleotide position 3243 of the mitochondrial DNA. The propositus presented at birth with clinical manifestations consistent with diabetic embryopathy including anal atresia, caudal dysgenesis, and multicystic dysplastic kidneys. His co-twin was normal at birth, but at 3...
