Mutant WDR45 Leads to Altered Ferritinophagy and Ferroptosis in β-Propeller Protein-Associated Neurodegeneration
23 Aug 2022
Abstract excerpt
Beta-propeller protein-associated neurodegeneration (BPAN) is a subtype of neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA) caused by loss-of-function variants in WDR45. The underlying mechanism of iron accumulation in WDR45 deficiency remains elusive. We established a primary skin fibroblast culture of a new BPAN patient with a missense variant p.(Asn61Lys) in WDR45 (NM_007075.3: c.183C>A). The female...
