General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
additional information | developmental arrest in Drosophila melanogaster caused by mitochondrial DNA replication defects cannot be rescued by xenotopic expression of the alternative oxidase (AOX) from Ciona intestinalis. AOX does not rescue developmental lethality, nor alter the biochemical and molecular parameters associated with Twinkle and pol gamma mutations or knockdown. This restricts the potential therapeutic use of AOX to specific types of mitochondrial dysfunction | Ciona intestinalis |
