Characterization of two novel intronic OPA1 mutations resulting in aberrant pre-mRNA splicing

BACKGROUND: We report two novel splice region mutations in OPA1 in two unrelated families presenting with autosomal-dominant optic atrophy type 1 (ADOA1) (ADOA or Kjer type optic atrophy). Mutations in OPA1 encoding a mitochondrial inner membrane protein are a major cause of ADOA. METHODS: We analyz...
