    Estimating the occurrence of primary ubiquinone deficiency by analysis of large-scale sequencing data

    Primary ubiquinone (UQ) deficiency is an important subset of mitochondrial disease that is caused by mutations in UQ biosynthesis genes. To guide therapeutic efforts we sought to estimate the number of individ...

    Targeting MMP-2 to treat ischemic heart injury

    Matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs) are long understood to be involved in remodeling of the extracellular matrix. However, over the past decade, it has become clear that one of the most ubiquitous MMPs, MMP-2, has...

    Mclk1+/- mice are not resistant to the development of atherosclerosis

    Mice with a single copy of Mclk1 (a.k.a. Coq7), a gene that encodes a mitochondrial enzyme required for the biosynthesis of ubiquinone and other functions, live longer than wild-type mice. The prolonged survival ...
