ncbi summary :
This gene product is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial protein with similarity to dynamin-related GTPases. It is a component of the mitochondrial network. Mutations in this gene have been associated with optic atrophy type 1, which is a dominantly inherited optic neuropathy resulting in progressive loss of visual acuity, leading in many cases to legal blindness. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
uniprot summary :
OPA1: a dynamin-related GTPase required for mitochondrial fusion and regulation of apoptosis. May form a diffusion barrier for proteins stored in mitochondrial cristae. Proteolytic processing in response to intrinsic apoptotic signals may lead to disassembly of OPA1 oligomers and release of the caspase activator cytochrome C (CYCS) into the mitochondrial intermembrane space. Defects in OPA1 are the cause of optic atrophy 1 and deafness. Eight splice-variant isoforms have been described. Protein type: Hydrolase; Mitochondrial; EC 3.6.5.5; Apoptosis; Membrane protein, integral. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 3q29. Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; mitochondrial crista; mitochondrial outer membrane; membrane; mitochondrion; dendrite; cytoplasm; mitochondrial inner membrane; integral to membrane; mitochondrial intermembrane space. Molecular Function: GTPase activity; protein binding; GTP binding; magnesium ion binding. Biological Process: inner mitochondrial membrane organization and biogenesis; mitochondrion organization and biogenesis; mitochondrial fission; mitochondrial genome maintenance; axon transport of mitochondrion; visual perception; mitochondrial fusion; apoptosis; metabolic process; neural tube closure. Disease: Glaucoma, Normal Tension, Susceptibility To; Optic Atrophy With Or Without Deafness, Ophthalmoplegia, Myopathy, Ataxia, And Neuropathy; Optic Atrophy 1
