Decreasing cytosolic translation is beneficial to yeast and human Tafazzin-deficient cells [PDF]
Cardiolipin (CL) optimizes diverse mitochondrial processes, including oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). To function properly, CL needs to be unsaturated, which requires the acyltransferase Tafazzin (TAZ).

Cardiac‐specific succinate dehydrogenase deficiency in Barth syndrome
Barth syndrome (BTHS) is a cardiomyopathy caused by the loss of tafazzin, a mitochondrial acyltransferase involved in the maturation of the glycerophospholipid cardiolipin.

Cardiolipin biosynthesis and remodeling enzymes are altered during development of heart failure
Cardiolipin (CL) is responsible for modulation of activities of various enzymes involved in oxidative phosphorylation. Although energy production decreases in heart failure (HF), regulation of cardiolipin during HF development is unknown.

Tafazzin—an acyltransferase—is involved in cardiolipin (CL) remodeling. CL is associated with mitochondrial function, structure and more recently with cell proliferation. Various tafazzin isoforms exist in humans.

Mutations in the tafazzin ( TAZ ) gene on chromosome Xq28 are responsible for the Barth syndrome (BTHS) phenotype resulting in a loss of function in the protein tafazzin involved in the transacylation of cardiolipin, an essential mitochondrial ...

Cardiac and Skeletal Muscle Defects in a Mouse Model of Human Barth Syndrome
Barth syndrome is an X-linked genetic disorder caused by mutations in the tafazzin (taz) gene and characterized by dilated cardiomyopathy, exercise intolerance, chronic fatigue, delayed growth, and neutropenia.

Tafazzin knockdown and Dox-sensitivity in H9c2 cardiomyocytes.
(A) knockdown of tafazzin was confirmed in H9c2 cells after transfection with 20 nM tafazzin siRNA for 48 h by western blot analysis. (B) Representative western blot showing the level of cleaved caspase-3.
