Impacts of plant tafazzin deficiency on differential gene expression
Tafazzin is a mitochondrial protein characterized in mammals and yeast. Tafazzin remodels the fatty acids of cardiolipin, aiding in the proper function of the electron transport chain.

Barth syndrome is a complex metabolic disorder caused by mutations in the mitochondrial transacylase tafazzin. Recently, an inducible tafazzin shRNA knockdown mouse model was generated to deconvolute the complex bioenergetic phenotype of this disease. To

Metabolic switch from fatty acid oxidation to glycolysis in knock‐in mouse model of Barth syndrome
Mitochondria are central for cellular metabolism and energy supply. Barth syndrome (BTHS) is a severe disorder, due to dysfunction of the mitochondrial cardiolipin acyl transferase tafazzin.

Cardiolipin remodeling by TAZ/tafazzin is selectively required for the initiation of mitophagy [PDF]
Tafazzin (TAZ) is a phospholipid transacylase that catalyzes the remodeling of cardiolipin, a mitochondrial phospholipid required for oxidative phosphorylation. Mutations of TAZ cause Barth syndrome, which is characterized by mitochondrial dysfunction and dilated cardiomyopathy, leading to premature death.

Tafazzin deficiency impairs CoA-dependent oxidative metabolism in cardiac mitochondria [PDF]
Barth syndrome is a mitochondrial myopathy resulting from mutations in the tafazzin (TAZ) gene encoding a phospholipid transacylase required for cardiolipin remodeling. Cardiolipin is a phospholipid of the inner mitochondrial membrane essential for the function of numerous mitochondrial proteins and processes.

Deletion of Tafazzin in Cardiomyocytes Results in Dilated Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Cardiolipin, the signature phospholipid of mitochondria, is crucial for mitochondrial function and architecture in the heart. Defects in cardiolipin remodeling processes and metabolism lead to cardiomyopathy, as seen in patients with Barth Syndrome (BTHS)

Barth syndrome is an inherited X-linked disorder that leads to cardiomyopathy, skeletal myopathy and neutropenia. These symptoms result from the loss of function of the enzyme TAFAZZIN, a transacylase located in the inner mitochondrial membrane that is ...

ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the additional clinical value of nuchal translucency (NT) measurement at the first‐trimester anomaly scan (FTAS) in a setting with first‐tier non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). Method This nationwide prospective cohort study, part of the IMITAS study on FTAS implementation, included all pregnancies with increased NT

Elevated liver glycogenolysis mediates higher blood glucose during acute exercise in Barth syndrome
Barth syndrome (BTHS) is an X-linked recessive genetic disorder due to mutations in the Tafazzin (TAFAZZIN) gene that lead to cardiac and skeletal muscle mitochondrial dysfunction.

Curating the Fetal Genome: Experience of the ClinGen Prenatal Gene Curation Expert Panel (GCEP)
ABSTRACT Objective Expert prenatal focused gene‐disease curation is necessary to accurately inform clinical care in the setting of rapidly expanding prenatal genomic sequencing. Methods An international Prenatal Gene Curation Expert Panel assembled and systematically reviewed genes asserted to be associated with prenatal hydrops, stillbirth, or severe ...
