Notes

"We report the case of a 35-year-old Japanese woman with CFS who had experienced chronic fatigue since the age of 11 years. [...] Genetic analysis revealed a novel heterozygous frameshift deletion in ADCK1 (p.Asn280fs), a gene related to mitochondrial function, which was confirmed using cDNA sequencing."
