Altered Membrane Association and Complex Formation of Tafazzin in the Absence of Cardiolipin
Nascent cardiolipin (CL) is remodeled through a series of deacylation:reacylation cycles to obtain its “mature” fatty acyl chain constituents. Tafazzin (Taz1p), the mutant gene product associated with Barth syndrome patients, is hypothesized to act as the/a monolysoCL acyltransferase mediating CL remodeling.

IntroductionBarth syndrome is a mitochondrial disease caused by loss-of-function mutations in the TAFAZZIN gene located on chromosome Xq28 encoding a transacylase essential for cardiolipin remodeling.

Coenzyme A is bound to tafazzin – a paradigm change for transacylation
Abstract Cardiolipin (CL) is the signature phospholipid of mitochondria. In an obligatory remodeling process, the mitochondrial transacylase tafazzin exchanges its acyl chains to create the highly unsaturated, mature form of CL. Tafazzin dysfunction causes Barth syndrome, a severe multisystem disorder.
