Mutations in genes coding for mitochondrial helicases such as TWINKLE and DNA2 are involved in mitochondrial myopathies with mtDNA instability in both human and mouse. We show that inactivation of Pif1, a third member of the mitochondrial helicase family, causes a similar phenotype in mouse. pif1-/- animals develop a mitochondrial myopathy with...

CHCHD10-related diseases include mitochondrial DNA instability disorder, frontotemporal dementia-amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FTD-ALS) clinical spectrum, late-onset spinal motor neuropathy (SMAJ), and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 (CMT2). Here, we show that CHCHD10 resides with mitofilin, CHCHD3 and CHCHD6 within the "mitochondrial...

Mitochondrial DNA instability disorders are responsible for a large clinical spectrum, among which amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-like symptoms and frontotemporal dementia are extremely rare. We report a large family with a late-onset phenotype including motor neuron disease, cognitive decline resembling frontotemporal dementia, cerebellar...
