FBXL4 mutation-caused mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome is driven by BNIP3/BNIP3L-dependent excessive mitophagy.

Abstract excerpt

Encephalomyopathic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion syndrome 13 (MTDPS13) is an autosomal recessive disorder arising from biallelic F-box and leucine-rich repeat (LRR) protein 4 (FBXL4) gene mutations. Recent advances have shown that excessive BCL2 interacting protein 3 (BNIP3)/ BCL2 interacting protein 3 like (BNIP3L)-dependent mitophagy underlies the molecular pathogenesis of MTDPS13. Here, we provide an...
