Implication of a rare variant in OPA1 in Cardiac Pathophysiology: From Cristae Remodelling to Contractile Dysfunction

Abstract Optic Atrophy 1 (OPA1), an important inner mitochondrial membrane GTPase, regulates mitochondrial fusion, maintains cristae structure, calcium buffering, cellular bioenergetics, preserves mtDNA and controls apoptosis.
