Mitochondrial Encephalomyopathies: Incidence & DNA
The incidence, mortality, clinical features and DNA abnormalities of mitochondrial encephalomyopathies (ME) were evaluated in a population-based study of children from western Sweden conducted at The Queen Silvia Children’s Hospital, Goteborg, Sweden.

Structural basis for late maturation steps of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex IV within the human respirasome [PDF]
The mitochondrial respiratory chain comprises four multimeric complexes (CI-CIV) that drive oxidative phosphorylation by transferring electrons to oxygen and generating the proton gradient required for ATP synthesis.

Wernicke Encephalopathy Complicating a Distinctive POLG Phenotype With MNGIE-Like Features. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy (MNGIE) is an extremely rare autosomal recessive disease caused by variants in the thymidine phosphorylase gene (TYMP), primarily characterized by severe gastrointestinal and neurological symptoms.

Mitochondrial encephalomyopathies [PDF]
Mitochondrial encephalomyopathies are diseases caused by defective oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), and affect the nervous system and/or skeletal muscle. They have emerged as a major entity among the neurometabolic diseases of childhood with an incidence of 1 in 11,000 children, and also have a high prevalence in adults.
