Knock-out mice die at 2-4 wks of age showing stunted growth, hypothermia, progressive mtDNA loss, aberrant myocardial fibers and altered adipose tissue structure. Knock-in mutant mice show encephalomyelopathy, impaired gait, mtDNA loss, altered mt dNTP pools and respiratory chain enzyme activities.
