Loss of the RNA-binding protein TACO1 causes late-onset mitochondrial dysfunction in mice

Mutations in the translational activator of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (TACO1) causes cytochrome c oxidase deficiency and Leigh Syndrome in patients. Here, the authors characterize mice with a mutation that causes lack of TACO1 expression, identifying a mouse model that could be useful for precl...

Description
Summary:Mutations in the translational activator of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (TACO1) causes cytochrome c oxidase deficiency and Leigh Syndrome in patients. Here, the authors characterize mice with a mutation that causes lack of TACO1 expression, identifying a mouse model that could be useful for preclinical trials.
