Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the Mpv17 gene are responsible for MPV17-related hepatocerebral mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome and Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease. Although several models including mouse, zebrafish, and cultured human cells, have been developed, the models do not show any neurological defects, which are often observed in patients. Therefore, we knocked down CG11077 (Drosophila Mpv17; dMpv17), an ortholog of...
