Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial single-stranded DNA-binding protein (mtSSB) is essential for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication. Recently, several mtSSB variants have been associated with autosomal dominant mitochondrial optic atrophy and retinal dystrophy. Here, we have studied at the molecular level the functional consequences of one of the most severe mtSSB variants, R107Q. We first studied the oligomeric state of this...
