Preprints are preliminary research reports that have not been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Preprints posted online allow authors to receive rapid feedback and the entire scientific community can appraise the work for themselves and respond appropriately. Those comments are posted alongside the preprints for anyone to read them and serve as a post publication assessment.

ABSTRACT
Background Hyperuricemia, pulmonary hypertension, renal failure, and alkaline intoxication syndrome (HUPRA syndrome) is a rare autosomal recessive mitochondrial disease with prevalence of less than one in a million. Due to mutations in the mitochondrial SARS enzyme encoding seryl-tRNA synthetase on chromosome 19 (19q13.2). Case–Diagnosis/Treatment We investigated two Palestinian girls from the same village presented with progressive renal failure in infancy were diagnosed with this multisystemic disease. presented with atypical clinical manifestations of HUPRA syndrome include leukopenia, anemia, salt wasting resulting in hyponatremia and hypochloremia, renal failure with elevated blood lactate, marked hyperuricemia, hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia but without pulmonary hypertension or alkaline intoxication that distinguish them from the rest of the usual cases, instead they showed acidosis in routine follow up. By using single exome sequencing analysis, we identified a two homozygous pathogenic mutation c.1175A>G (p.D392G), c.1169A>G (D390G) in SARS2 gene. This sequence identified a new variant mutation of HUPRA syndrome c.1175A>G (p.D392G) with atypical presentation, that will be added to the literature. Conclusion SARS2 gene with pathogenic homozygous mutation variants were detected in our two patients c.1175A>G (p.D392G), c.1169A>G (D390G) in exon 13, with atypical clinical manifestations of HUPRA syndrome, expanding the spectrum of SARS2 pathogenic variants with its characteristic findings, describing the differences in clinical manifestations between homozygous and compound heterozygous mutations.
