Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Cox10 is an enzyme required for the activity of cytochrome c oxidase. Humans who lack at least one functional copy of Cox10 have a form of Leigh Syndrome, a genetic disease that is usually fatal in infancy. As more human genomes are sequenced, new alleles are being discovered; whether or not these alleles encode functional proteins remains unclear. Thus, we set out to measure the phenotypes of many...
