Mutations in mitochondrial DNA are an important cause of human disease and from a therapeutic standpoint, these disorders are currently untreatable. New studies now show that a non-cognate mitochondrial aminoacyl tRNA synthetase can overcome the respiratory defect caused by an mt-tRNA mutation and that the isolated carboxy-terminal domain of human mt-leucyl tRNA synthetase can ameliorate the pathologic phenotype.
