A new study shows that mutations in Col6a, encoding collagen VI, cause muscle degeneration by affecting a distant target, the mitochondrion. The results show how elucidating the cellular consequences of genetic defects may provide unexpected perspectives into disease mechanism.

A new study shows that mutations in Col6a, encoding collagen VI, cause muscle degeneration by affecting a distant target, the mitochondrion. The results show how elucidating the cellular consequences of genetic defects may provide unexpected perspectives into disease mechanism.File in questo prodotto:
