INSERM U 254, 71, rue de Navacelles, 34090 Montpellier, France
Hum Genet 109:584-91. 2001..We hypothesize that at least two modifications of OPA1 may lead to dominant optic atrophy, that is alteration in GTPase activity and loss of the last seven C-terminal amino acids that putatively interact with other proteins...
