The link between MICU1 and disease could be established when (pre-publication) Marjolein Kriek reported MICU1 variants using LOVD's VIP option, asking others to contact her when similar variant/phenotype associations were observed. The request was successful and lead to the definite association as published by Logan et al. (2014).
