Adding a temporal dimension to the study of Friedreich's ataxia: the effect of frataxin overexpression in a human cell model

The neurodegenerative disease Friedreich's ataxia is caused by lower than normal levels of frataxin, an important protein involved in iron–sulfur (Fe-S) cluster biogenesis. An important step in designing strategies to treat this disease is to understand whether increasing the frataxin levels by...
