Myoclonal epilepsy and ragged red fiber disease (MERRF) is a human condition named for the ragged red fibers of skeletal muscle cells and myoclonic epilepsy in affected individuals. People with this disorder have a mutation in a mitochondrial gene for a tRNA, specifically that for lysine. Affected individuals are heteroplastic. Why?
◦ Interference with translation is not fully rescued by importing lysine from the cytoplasm.
◦ Homoplastic organelles would be inviable due to failures in translation.
◦ Lysine is required in translation of every one of the mitochondrial genes.
◦ Mutations of this gene affect individuals before birth.
◦ Mutations of this gene are dominant.
