Mitochondrial malfunction in vanishing white matter disease: a disease of the cytosolic translation machinery
Orna Elroy-Stein
摘要:Vanishing white matter (VWM) disease – a disease of the cytosolic translation machinery: VWM is a recessive genet-ic neurodegenerative disease caused by mutations in any of the five genes encoding the subunits of translation initiation factor 2B (eIF2B) (Leegwater et al., 2001; OMIM 306896). This cure-less disease is rare (rough estimation would be around 1:100,000), but the actual prevalence is thought to be limited by its challenging diagnosis.
