Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
18039713 The N-terminal part of TWINKLE is required for efficient binding to single-stranded DNA.
17420318 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
17921179 study reports a new phenotype in two siblings with compound heterozygous Twinkle mutations (A318T and Y508C), characterized by severe early onset encephalopathy and signs of liver involvement
17722119 Identifying other Twinkle mutations in mitochondrial DNA depletion and/or autosomal dominant progressive external ophthalmoplegia and studying their impact on proteins should help in understanding why some mutations are recessive and others are dominant.
17614276 Direct sequencing showed a heteroplasmic mutation at nucleotide 7506 in the dihydrouridine stem of the tRNA(Ser(UCN)) gene.
17614277 We report a Spanish family showing a mild phenotype characterized by autosomal dominant ocular myopathy and morphological signs of mitochondrial dysfunction, that harboured a novel(p.R357P) mutation in the hot-spot linker region of the twinkle protein.
17620490 This finding broadens the clinical spectrum of Twinkle gene mutations and further implicates loss of mitochondrial DNA integrity in the pathogenesis of Parkinson disease.
15668446 A novel heterozygous A to G transition at nucleotide 955 of C10Orf2 (Twinkle)ws found in siblings with sensory ataxic neuropathy.
12163192 Twinkle appears to be the most common gene associated with adPEO in Australian families.
15181170 mechanism whereby mutations in twinkle result in progressive accumulation of multiple mtDNA deletions in post- mitotic tissues
