malfunction | the analyzed TKFC homozygous variants are located within the FMN lyase domain. Functional assays in yeast support the deleterious effect of these variants on protein function. Shared phenotypes between affected individuals with TKFC deficiency include cataracts and developmental delay, associated with cerebellar hypoplasia in one case. Further complications observed in two affected individuals included liver dysfunction and microcytic anemia, while one had fatal cardiomyopathy with lactic acidosis following a febrile illness. Deficiency of TKFC causes disruption of endogenous fructose metabolism leading to generation of by-products that can cause cataract. Deficiency of TKFC leads to impaired innate immunity in response to viral illness, which may explain the fatal illness observed in the most severely affected individual. Phenotypic analyses, oveerview | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | TKFC encodes a bifunctional protein that has been annotated as a homodimeric triokinase and FMN cyclase. Triokinase is a component of the fructose metabolism pathway. Role of TKFC in regulating innate antiviral immunity through suppression of MDA5 | Homo sapiens |
