2023-02-28
Abstract excerpt
In this paper we describe the development of a new model system for Friedreich’s Atax- ia (FA) using Dictyostelium discoideum . We investigated the conservation of function between humans and D. discoideum and showed that DdFXN can substitute the human version in the interaction and activation of the Fe-S assembly supercomplex. We edited the fxn locus and isolated a defective mutant, clone 8, which presents lan...
