<i>OPA1</i> and disease-causing mutants perturb mitochondrial nucleoid distribution
2024-02-05
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Optic atrophy protein 1 (OPA1) mediates inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM) fusion and cristae organization. Mutations in OPA1 cause autosomal dominant optic atrophy (ADOA), a leading cause of blindness. Cells from ADOA patients show impaired mitochondrial fusion, cristae structure, bioenergetic function, and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) integrity. The mtDNA encodes electron transport chain subunits...
