MAST1 is neuron-specific regulator of mitochondrial trafficking and abundance in human brain tissue

H M Arif Ullah, KANDY L. NAPAN, IVAN KHIMACH, MIGUEL A. CUEVAS, YONGSOO KIM, ERIN B. TAYLOR, MARIA A. SERRANO, ANTHONY S. RICCIARDULLI, SOPHIA ANDREADIS, ZHENNI JIN, NICOLE LOSURDO, ANDREW HARRAHILL, COLIN MAGUIRE, JEAN J. KIM, ALEKSANDAR BAJIC, , ALEX SHCHEGLOVITOV

This study identifies MAST1 as a neuron-specific regulator of mitochondrial trafficking and abundance, linking its mutations to neuronal mitochondrial dysfunction and microcephaly.
