Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/963607692

This is the deficiency in an enzyme in the mitochondria of all eukaryotes. It oxidizes sulfite to sulfate and, via cytochrome c, transfers the electrons produced to the electron transport chain, allowing generation of ATP in oxidative phosphorylation.
