Description: (OMIM) Primary coenzyme Q10 deficiency-4 is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by childhood-onset of cerebellar ataxia and exercise intolerance. Some affected individuals develop seizures and have mild mental impairment, indicating variable severity. Oral coenzyme Q10 supplementation does not result ...
Clinical Description OMIM Mollet et al. (2008) reported 4 patients, including 2 sisters, with coenzyme Q10 deficiency manifest as childhood-onset cerebellar ataxia. One patient was able to walk unaided at 1 year of age but fell frequently. He developed cerebellar ataxia ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In 4 patients from 3 families with primary coenzyme Q deficiency-4 manifest as autosomal recessive childhood-onset cerebellar ataxia, Mollet et al. (2008) found homozygosity or compound heterozygosity for mutations in the ADCK3 gene (606980.0001-606980.0005). Mollet et al. (2008) ...
