Mohr-Tranebjaerg syndrome is an X-linked recessive condition characterized by progressive postlingual sensorineural hearing impairment that begin in childhood associated by dystonia and optic atrophy. Mohr-Tranebjaerg syndrome is caused by mutations in the TIMM8A, a translocase of the inner mitochondrial membrane whose dysfunction leads to mitochondrial-based neural degeneration.
