Opa1 helical structures give perspective to mitochondrial dysfunction
2022-09-14
Abstract excerpt
Dominant Optic Atrophy is the leading cause of childhood blindness, with 60-80% of cases caused by mutation of the gene encoding the protein Optic Atrophy 1, OPA1. This condition dysregulates the GTPase mediated fusion process of the mitochondrial inner- and outer-membranes. OPA1 is critical to the dynamic organization and regulation of the mitochondria due to its role in cristae remodeling and GTPase-mediated fus...
