Inherited optic neuropathies cohort from france with nothing found in OPA1, OPA3 and WFS1 or mtDNA. 2 individuals (55 and 47yo) found to have missense variant in MIEF1, p.Arg146Trp has 35 hets 0 homs in gnomad, p.Tyr240Asn is absent. Both have non-syndromic late onset inherited optic neuropathies characterized by initial loss of peripheral visual fields.

Functional studies in HeLa cells- both missense localised to the mitochondria and formed oligomers similar to WT. MIEF1 normally regulates mitochondrial fission dynamics and causes an increase in mitochondrial fusion events, however both missense variants caused a significantly decreased mitochondrial fusion events.
