摘要
Mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) is the most common mitochondrial disease due to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations. At least 15 distinct mtDNA mutations have been associated with MELAS, and about 80% of the cases are caused by the A3243G tRNA (Leu(UUR)) gene mutation. We report here a novel tRNA(Val) mutation in a 37-year-old woman with manifestations of MELAS, and compare her clinicopathological phenotype with other rare cases associated tRNA(Val) mutations.
