Distinct effects of tafazzin deletion in differentiated and undifferentiated mitochondria [PDF]
Mitochondrion, 2009 Tafazzin is a conserved mitochondrial protein that is required to maintain normal content and composition of cardiolipin. We used electron tomography to investigate the effect of tafazzin deletion on mitochondrial structure and found that cellular differentiation plays a crucial role in the manifestation of abnormalities. This conclusion was reached by

Metabolic switch from fatty acid oxidation to glycolysis in knock‐in mouse model of Barth syndrome
EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2023 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.

Phosphatidylglycerol Supplementation Alters Mitochondrial Morphology and Cardiolipin Composition
Membranes, 2022 The pathogenic variant of the TAZ gene is directly associated with Barth syndrome. Because tafazzin in the mitochondria is responsible for cardiolipin (CL) remodeling, all molecules related to the metabolism of CL can affect or be affected by TAZ ...

Monolysocardiolipins accumulate in Barth syndrome but do not lead to enhanced apoptosis
Journal of Lipid Research, 2005 Barth syndrome (BTHS) is an X-linked recessive disorder that is biochemically characterized by low cellular levels of the mitochondrial phospholipid cardiolipin (CL).

Effects of N‐oleoylethanolamide on Lymphoblasts Deficient in Tafazzin
The FASEB Journal, 2021 Barth Syndrome (BTHS) is a rare X‐linked genetic disorder caused by mutations in the TAZ gene that encodes for the cardiolipin remodelling enzyme, Tafazzin. This syndrome is characterized by cardiac and skeletal myopathies, as well as immunological deficits that cause significant morbidity ...

Evaluation of Tafazzin as Candidate for Dilated Cardiomyopathy in Irish Wolfhounds [PDF]
Journal of Heredity, 2007 Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common disease in humans and dogs. Large-breed dogs and especially Irish wolfhounds belong to the frequently affected breeds. Male Irish wolfhounds show a significantly higher prevalence of DCM than females. Therefore, we evaluated X chromosome markers for linkage with DCM as well as a human candidate gene on the X ...
