Abstract excerpt
TOMM70 is a receptor at the contact site between mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum, and TOMM70 has been identified as a risk gene for hereditary spastic paraplegia. Furthermore, de novo missense variants of TOMM70 have been identified to cause neurological impairments in two unrelated patients. Here, we show that mutant zebrafish ruehreip25ca also harbour a missense mutation in tomm70, affecting the same...
