HPDL

The protein encoded by this intronless gene localizes to mitochondria, where it may function as 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase. Clinical studies have identified several bi-allelic variants in this gene that lower the level of the encoded protein and lead to a clinically variable form of pediatric-onset spastic movement disorder.
