Friedreich ataxia, the most common autosomal recessive ataxia, is caused by frataxin deficiency. Reduction of frataxin has been associated with iron accumulation and sensitivity to iron induced oxidative stress. To better understand the function of frataxin, transgenic mice (tgFxn) overexpressing human frataxin were generated.

Friedreich ataxia is the consequence of frataxin deficiency, most often caused by a GAA repeat expansion in intron 1 of the corresponding gene. Frataxin is a mitochondrial protein involved in iron homeostasis. As an attempt to generate a mouse model of the disease, we introduced a (GAA)230 repeat within the mouse frataxin gene by homologous ...

Reduced expression of frataxin extends the lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans
Defects in the expression of the mitochondrial protein frataxin cause Friedreich's ataxia, an hereditary neurodegenerative syndrome characterized by progressive ataxia and associated with reduced life expectancy in humans.

Frataxin participates to the hypoxia-induced response in tumors [PDF]
Defective expression of frataxin is responsible for the degenerative disease Friedreich's ataxia. Frataxin is a protein required for cell survival since complete knockout is lethal. Frataxin protects tumor cells against oxidative stress and apoptosis but
