Pathogenic variants in the
LONP1
gene have been associated with CODAS syndrome (Cerebral, Ocular, Dental,
A
uricular, and
S
keletal Anomalies Syndrome). A recent report identified the first newborn case with
LONP1
-related mitochondrial cytopathy due to a compound heterozygous pathogenic variant in
LONP1
without features of CODAS. The proband had manifested with severe congenital lactic acidosis and profound multiple respiratory chain complex activity deficiencies associated with the quantitative loss of mtDNA copy number in muscle. A subsequent report identified two siblings with regression during infancy, profound hypotonia and muscle weakness, severe intellectual disability, progressive cerebellar atrophy, where muscle biopsy showed an electron dense mitochondrial inclusions without ragged-red fibers and normal electron transport chain enzyme activities. Here, we report an additional case of autosomal recessive mitochondrial cytopathy due to a homozygous missense variant in
LONP1
that was identified on whole exome sequencing (c.810G > A; p.D463N). The proband, a 20-year-old male born to consanguineous parents, presented with global developmental delay, emotional outbursts, speech and swallowing difficulties, hypotonia, and
ataxia
since childhood. Muscle biopsy showed massive granular bodies, increased oxidative stress, and autophagic block and reduced mitochondrial state 3 respiration. We have identified another case of
LONP1
-related mitochondrial cytopathy further confirming a neurological phenotype without CODAS features.
