Targeted Elimination of Peroxisomes During Viral Infection: Lessons from HIV and Other Viruses.

abstract：:Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) causes severe visual impairment and blindness very early in life. Mutant alleles of several genes acting in different pathways, of which all have critical roles for normal retinal function, were involved in LCA development. The purpose of this study was to use genome-wide genotyping to...
