A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in individuals with two pathogenic alleles, either homozygotes (two copies of the same mutant allele) or compound heterozygotes (whereby each copy of a gene has a distinct mutant allele).

Definition

Syndrome caused by impairment of mitochondria. Whilst mitochondrial disorders may be caused by impairment of a single stage of energy production, individuals with multiple mitochondrial dysfunctions syndrome have reduced function of more than one stage. Symptoms begin in early life and affected individuals usually do not live past infancy. Symptoms include encephalopathy, hypotonia, seizures and psychomotor delay. Most affected babies have lactic acidosis that can be life threatening. [from SNOMEDCT_US]
