Journal ArticleDOI

The Machines that Divide and Fuse Mitochondria

TL;DR: This review focuses on what is currently known about the novel molecular machines that divide and fuse mitochondria, which are derived from eubacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coassembly of Mgm1 isoforms requires cardiolipin and mediates mitochondrial inner membrane fusion

TL;DR: The soluble and membrane-anchored isoforms of Mgm1 are only active when they work together (in trans) and the two types of isoforms are distinguished by their racemates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Uniform nomenclature for the mitochondrial contact site and cristae organizing system

TL;DR: The mitochondrial inner membrane contains a large protein complex that functions in inner membrane organization and formation of membrane contact sites and it is proposed to unify the nomenclature and term the complex “mitochondrial contact site and cristae organizing system” and its subunits Mic10 to Mic60.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Soluble Form of Bax Regulates Mitochondrial Fusion via MFN2 Homotypic Complexes

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that heterotypicMFN1-MFN2 trans complexes possess greater efficacy in fusion as compared to homotypic MFN1 or MFN2 complexes, and it is shown that the soluble form of the proapoptotic Bcl2 protein, Bax, positively regulates mitochondrial fusion exclusively through homotyped MFN 2 trans complexes.
