Mitochondrial disease or vitamin deficiency

[Marco]

I thought this was an interesting story in the context of Fluge and Mella's latest study.

Biotinidase deficiency may result from a genetic defect in the enzyme that extracts biotin (B7) from food with symptoms reminiscent of mitochondrial disease.

A happy ending in this case :
