ABHD12 controls brain lysophosphatidylserine pathways that are deregulated in a murine model of the neurodegenerative disease PHARC.   Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 110(4): 1500-5.

Advances in human genetics are leading to the discovery of new disease-causing mutations at a remarkable rate. Many such mutations, however, occur in genes that encode for proteins of unknown function, which limits our molecular understanding of, and ability to devise treatments for, human disease. Here, we use untargeted metabolomics combined with a genetic mouse model to determine that the poorly characterized serine hydrolase α/β-hydrolase domain-containing (ABHD)12, mutations in which ...

Articles on Cataracts published 21 January 2013:

Early-onset cataracts, spastic paraparesis, and ataxia caused by a novel mitochondrial tRNAGlu (MT-TE) gene mutation causing severe complex I deficiency: a clinical, molecular, and neuropathologic study.   J Neuropathol Exp Neurol, 72(2): 164-75.

Mitochondrial respiratory chain disease is associated with a spectrum of clinical presentations and considerable genetic heterogeneity. Here we report molecular genetic and neuropathologic findings from an adult with an unusual manifestation of mitochondrial DNA disease. Clinical features included early-onset cataracts, ataxia, and progressive paraparesis, with sequencing revealing the presence of a novel de novo m.14685G>A mitochondrial tRNA(Glu) (MT-TE) gene mutation. Muscle biopsy showed ... [Abstract] [Full-text]
