trifunctional protein deficiency (TFP deficiency)
Genetics:
- biochemically, TFP deficiency is loss of all 3 enzyme activities of the TFP complex (mitochondrial trifunctional enzyme complex)
Clinical manifestations:
1) variable
2) hypoglycemia
3) cardiomyopathy
4) sudden death
5) phenotypes with mainly hepatic & neuromyopathic involvement can also be distinguished
Laboratory:
- HADHA gene mutation
- HADHB gene mutation
