AbstractCytochrome c oxidase deficiency is caused by mutations in any of at least 30 mitochondrial and nuclear genes involved in mitochondrial complex IV biogenesis and structure, including the recently identified PET100 gene. Here, we report two families, of which one is consanguineous, with two affected siblings each. In one family, the siblings presented with developmental delay, seizures, lactic acidosis, abnormal brain magnetic resonance imaging, and low muscle mitochondrial complex IV activity at 30%. In the other family, the two siblings, now deceased, had a history of global developmental delay, failure to thrive, muscular hypotonia, seizures, developmental regression, respiratory insufficiency, and lactic acidosis. By whole exome sequencing, a missense mutation in exon 1 of the PET100 gene (c.3G > C; [p.Met1?]) was identified in both families. A review of the clinical description and literature is discussed, highlighting the importance of this variant in the Lebanese population.
