Abstract
⺠We report 2 novel mitochondrial mutations a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and hearing loss. ⺠The m.3395A > G (Y30C, ND1) mutation is located in an extramembrane loop linking the helix A and the helix B of the ND1 protein. ⺠The 2 novel heteroplasmic mutations may act synergistically and exert a cumulative negative effect on heart function.
