Study Notes

Diseases Associated with Organelle Dysfunction

  • Tay-Sachs Disease: Linked to lysosomes, which are membrane-bound sacs containing enzymes.
  • McArdle Disease: Stems from mitochondrial malfunction.
  • Kearns-Sayre Disease: Affects mitochondria.
  • Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS): Involves a problem with intermediate filaments, specifically neurofilaments.
