Complex 1 Polymorphisms and Mutations |
| St.
Luke’s-Roosevelt is conducting comprehensive genetic studies
to define the role of Complex I variants in various neurodegenerative
disorders including Multiple Sclerosis. As part of these efforts,
we have set up a molecular screening to identify mutations with pathogenic
significance within genes of Complex I in patients with metabolic
encephalopathy and Complex I deficiency. Our goal is to identify pathogenic mutations and variants in genes of Complex I, in order to better understand the role of Complex I in the process of neurodegeneration. |
