Cloning and characterization of a cDNA encoding human cardiolipin synthase (hCLS1)

Cardiolipin (CL) is a phospholipid localized to the mitochondria, and its biosynthesis is essential for mitochondrial structure and function. We report here the identification and characterization of a cDNA encoding the first mammalian cardiolipin synthase (CLS1) in humans and mice. This cDNA exhibi...
