Introduction The case report describes a novel finding of a homozygous variant in the coronin 1A (CORO1A) gene, associated with atypical severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) in a 9‐year‐old female patient with recurrent infections and unique immunological features, including periodic T‐cell lymphocytosis and T‐ and B‐cell lymphopenia.

Holding Out for a Model: Rhomboid Superfamily in Vertebrate Development and Disease
ABSTRACT The rhomboid superfamily, comprising both proteases and pseudoproteases, has emerged as a central regulator of membrane biology, mediating diverse functions including protein quality control, signal transduction, trafficking, and more. While molecular mechanisms of rhomboid activity have been well‐characterized in invertebrate and cell‐based ...

Mitochondria as Regulators of Nonapoptotic Cell Death in Cancer
Mitochondrial fission and fusion are key processes in maintaining cellular health. Fission is driven by proteins like, Fis‐1, which recruits DRP‐1, to facilitate the division of mitochondria. Fusion, however, is mediated by mitofusion 1(MFN1), mitofusion 2(MFN2), and optic atrophy 1 (OPA1), which work together to merge mitochondria, allowing functional

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.

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 ...

Tafazzin (TAZ) promotes the tumorigenicity of cervical cancer cells and inhibits apoptosis
Tafazzin (TAZ) is often aberrantly expressed in some cancers, including rectal cancer and thyroid neoplasms. However, the function of TAZ in cervical cancer cells remains unknown. This study aims to explore the expression and function of TAZ in cervical cancer cells.

Mitochondrial cardiolipin metabolism controlled by tafazzin enables ferroptosis
Abstract Mitochondria are important producers of reactive oxygen species, which are involved in triggering ferroptosis, a lipid peroxidation driven form of cell death. Paradoxically, in the rare inherited metabolic disease Barth Syndrome, we discovered a protection from erastin-induced ferroptosis, despite intrinsically elevated ...
