Pathogenic variants of the mitochondrial copper chaperones SCO1 and SCO2 reshape their respective interactomes and disrupt cellular phospholipid metabolism

SCO1 and SCO2 are required for copper delivery to COX2, a copper-containing subunit of cytochrome c oxidase (COX), yet how mutations in these genes cause distinct, tissue-specific forms of human disease remains poorly understood. To gain further insight into the molecular underpinnings of this clinical heterogeneity, w...
