TAFAZZIN and Barth syndrome: Barth Syndrome (BTHS) is an early onset, lethal X-linked disorder caused by a mutation in tafazzin (TAFAZZIN), a mitochondrial acyltransferase that remodels monolysocardiolipin (MLCL) to mature cardiolipin (CL) and is essential for normal mitochondrial, cardiac, and skeletal muscle function.
