The first mutation in ISCU was described almost 10 years in Swedish patients while the second mutation was found the following year. No additional mutation in ISCU has been reported from then on. The associated disease is known as \u201cMyopathy with lactic acidosis\u201d and has an autosomal recessive inheritance. We identified the first heterozygous dominant ISCU mutation which results in a phenotype reminiscent of the recessive disease previously reported.
