Mitochondrial MICOS complex genes, implicated in hypoplastic left heart syndrome, maintain cardiac contractility and actomyosin integrity
<p>Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a severe congenital heart disease (CHD) with a likely oligogenic etiology, but our understanding of the genetic complexities and pathogenic mechanisms leading to HLHS is limited. We therefore performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) on a large cohort of HLHS patients and their families to identify candidate genes that were then tested in <em>Drosophila</em> heart model for functional and structural requirements. Bioinformatic analysis of WGS data from an index family comprised of a HLHS proband born to consanguineous parents and postulated to have a homozygous recessive disease etiology, prioritized 9 candidate genes with rare, predicted damaging homozygous variants. Of the candidate HLHS gene homologs tested, cardiac-specific knockdown (KD) of mitochondrial MICOS complex subunit dCHCHD3/6 resulted in drastically compromised heart contractility, diminished levels of sarcomeric actin and myosin, reduced cardiac ATP levels, and mitochondrial fission-fusion defects. Interestingly, these heart defects were similar to those inflicted by cardiac KD of ATP synthase subunits of the electron transport chain (ETC), consistent with the MICOS complex's role in maintaining cristae morphology and ETC complex assembly. Analysis of 183 genomes of HLHS patient-parent trios revealed five additional HLHS probands with rare, predicted damaging variants in CHCHD3 or CHCHD6. Hypothesizing an oligogenic basis for HLHS, we tested 60 additional prioritized candidate genes in these cases for genetic interactions with CHCHD3/6 in sensitized fly hearts. Moderate KD of CHCHD3/6 in combination with Cdk12 (activator of RNA polymerase II), RNF149 (E3 ubiquitin ligase), or SPTBN1 (scaffolding protein) caused synergistic heart defects, suggesting the potential involvement of a diverse set of pathways in HLHS. Further elucidation of novel candidate genes and genetic interactions of potentially-disease-contributing pathways is expected to lead to a better understanding of HLHS and other CHDs.</p>
