<i>Drosophila</i> model to clarify the pathological significance of OPA1 in autosomal dominant optic atrophy
2023-03-20
Abstract excerpt
Autosomal dominant optic atrophy (DOA) is a progressive form of blindness caused by degeneration of retinal ganglion cells and their axons, mainly caused by mutations in the OPA1 mitochondrial dynamin like GTPase ( OPA1 ) gene. OPA1 encodes a dynamin-like GTPase present in the mitochondrial inner membrane. When associated with OPA1 mutations, DOA can present not only ocular symptoms but also multi-organ symptom...
