Abstract

There are reported clinical and molecular characteristics of mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome-5 in a child from the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). The patient had been included in the risk group of expanded newborn screening before the diagnosis was established. The whole-genome sequencing revealed the variant c.148C>T in the homozygous state, which leads to termination of protein synthesis p.Gln50* in the SUCLA2 gene.
