OXA1L deficiency causes mitochondrial myopathy via reactive oxygen species regulated nuclear factor kappa B signalling pathway [PDF]
Background OXA1L is crucial for mitochondrial protein insertion and assembly into the inner mitochondrial membrane, and its variants have been recently linked to mitochondrial encephalopathy. However, the definitive pathogenic link between OXA1L variants
