Human frataxin, the Friedreich ataxia deficient protein, interacts with mitochondrial respiratory chain

Abstract Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is a rare, inherited neurodegenerative disease caused by an expanded GAA repeat in the first intron of the FXN gene, leading to transcriptional silencing and reduced expression of frataxin. Frataxin participates in the mitochondrial assembly of FeS clusters, redox c...
