The glaucoma-associated E50K mutation in optineurin (OPTN) is known to affect autophagy and cause the apoptosis of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), but the pathogenic mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we investigated whether the OPTN (E50K) mutation caused TDP-43 aggregation by disrupting autophagy in vivo and in vitro. OPTN (E50K) mutant mice were generated and analysed for genotype and phenotype. Adeno-associated virus type 2 vectors containing either GFP only, GFP-tagged wild-type OPTN or GFP-tagged E50K-mutated OPTN were used to transfect R28 cell
