Gene name
OPA3 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
FLJ22187, MGA3
Description
Optic atrophy 3 (autosomal recessive, with chorea and spastic paraplegia) (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The mouse ortholog of this protein co-purifies with the mitochondrial inner membrane. Mutations in this gene have been shown to result in 3-methylglutaconic aciduria type III and autosomal dominant optic atrophy and cataract. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
