Genetic studies have found that Charcot-Marie-Tooth may be caused by a mutation in the gene Mitofusin-2 (MFN2), which causes mitochondria to form large clumps. In what area of a neuron are these clumps most likely to cause a problem?  

Charcot-Marie-Tooth is the most commonly inherited peripheral neuropathy, and has no known cure. Patients suffer damage to motor and sensory neurons, leading to degeneration of muscles and gradual loss of motor control.
