Mitochondrial complex III deficiencies in the newborn infant.
New mechanisms for respiratory chain complex III diseases have recently been reported. Deletions, rearrangements and tRNA mutations of mitochondrial DNA cause deficiencies in several complexes. Mutations in the only complex III subunit encoded by mitochondrial DNA, cytochrome b, cause variable clinical phenotypes, such as cardiomyopathy or multisystemic dysfunction after birth. The homozygous seri
