Mitochondrially encoded tRNA leucine 1 (UUA/G) also known as MT-TL1 is a transfer RNA which in humans is encoded by the mitochondrial MT-TL1 gene.[1]

Structure

The MT-TL1 gene is located on the p arm of the mitochondrial DNA at position 12 and it spans 75 base pairs.[2] The structure of a tRNA molecule is a distinctive folded structure which contains three hairpin loops and resembles a three-leafed clover.[3]

Function

MT-TL1 is a small 75 nucleotide RNA (human mitochondrial map position 3230-3304) that transfers the amino acid leucine to a growing polypeptide chain at the ribosome site of protein synthesis during translation.

Clinical significance

Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes

Mutations in MT-TL1 can result in multiple mitochondrial deficiencies and associated disorders. It is associated with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS).[4] MELAS is a rare mitochondrial disorder known to affect many parts of the body, especially the nervous system and the brain. Symptoms of MELAS include recurrent severe headaches, muscle weakness (myopathy), hearing loss, stroke-like episodes with a loss of consciousness, seizures, and other problems affecting the nervous system.[5] A common mutation is A3243G. This mutation has been theorized to be associated with several other mitochondrial diseases,[6] including diabetes mellitus and deafness.[7][8] Diabetes mellitus and deafness is characterized by diabetes combined with hearing loss, particularly of high pitches. Additional symptoms includemuscle weakness (myopathy) and various problems with a patient's eyes, heart, or kidneys.[9]

Complex I deficiency

MT-TP mutations may result in complex I deficiency of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, which may cause a wide variety of signs and symptoms affecting many organs and systems of the body, particularly the nervous system, the heart, and the muscles used for movement (skeletal muscles). These signs and symptoms can appear at any time from birth to adulthood. Phenotypes of the condition include encephalopathy, epilepsy, dystonia, hypotonia, myalgia, exercise intolerance, and more. A 3302A>G mutation has been found in a patient with the deficiency.[10]
