OPA1 mutations in patients with autosomal dominant optic atrophy and evidence for semi-dominant inheritance [PDF]
We and others have shown recently that mutations in the OPA1 gene encoding a dynamin-related mitochondrial protein cause autosomal dominant optic atrophy (ADOA) linked to chromosome 3q28-q29. Here we report screening of the OPA1 gene in a sample of 78 independent ADOA families.

dominant optic atrophy phenotype: Infantile nystagmus and optic atrophy without spastic paraplegia
Spastic paraplegia is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive leg weakness and spasticity due to degeneration of corticospinal axons. SPG7 encodes paraplegin, and pathogenic variants in the gene cause hereditary spastic paraplegia as an

Visual Prognosis in Autosomal Dominant Optic Atrophy (Kjer Type)
We examined 25 patients from three pedigrees with dominant optic atrophy (Kjer type). Follow-up on 20 patients ranged from five to 40 years (mean, 16 years; median, 13 years). Visual acuity ranged from 20/20 (in one 58-year-old man with an affected father and three affected children) to 20/400. The median initial visual acuity was 20/60, and the median

Autosomal dominant optic atrophy and cataract “plus” phenotype including axonal neuropathy [PDF]
To characterize the phenotype in individuals with OPA3-related autosomal dominant optic atrophy and cataract (ADOAC) and peripheral neuropathy (PN).Two probands with multiple affected relatives and one sporadic case were referred for evaluation of a PN. Their phenotype was determined by clinical ± neurophysiological assessment.

Heterozygous mutation of Opa1 in Drosophila shortens lifespan mediated through increased reactive oxygen species production. [PDF]
Optic atrophy 1 (OPA1) is a dynamin-like GTPase located in the inner mitochondrial membrane and mutations in OPA1 are associated with autosomal dominant optic atrophy (DOA).

Heterozygous mutation of Drosophila Opa1 causes the development of multiple organ abnormalities in an age-dependent and organ-specific manner. [PDF]
Optic Atrophy 1 (OPA1) is a ubiquitously expressed dynamin-like GTPase in the inner mitochondrial membrane. It plays important roles in mitochondrial fusion, apoptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ATP production.

Walsh & Hoyt: Dominant Optic Atrophy
Autosomal dominant optic atrophy, type Kjer (McKusick no. 165500, gene symbol OPA1) (359), is believed to be the most common of the hereditary optic neuropathies. The estimated disease prevalence is 150,000, or as high as 110,000 in Denmark (360,361)
