TypeGene ModificationChromosome rearrangementProtein expressionProtein Function
constitutional     --over  
overexpression of APOO induced fragmentation of mitochondria, promoted ROS formation and resulted in impaired mitochondrial respiration
constitutional     --low  
depletion led to alterations in mitochondrial ultrastructure and caused a significant reduction in the number of crista junctions
