AMP-activated protein kinase mediates mitochondrial fission in response to energy stress [PDF]

, 2016
Mitochondria undergo fragmentation in response to electron transport chain (ETC) poisons and mitochondrial DNA–linked disease mutations, yet how these stimuli mechanistically connect to the mitochondrial fission and fusion machinery is poorly understood.

Dysfunctional mitochondrial fission impairs cell reprogramming [PDF]

Cell Cycle, 2016
We have recently shown that mitochondrial fission is induced early in reprogramming in a Drp1-dependent manner; however, the identity of the factors controlling Drp1 recruitment to mitochondria was unexplored. To investigate this, we used a panel of RNAi targeting factors involved in the regulation of mitochondrial dynamics and we observed that MiD51 ...

The essential role of mitochondrial dynamics in antiviral immunity. [PDF]

, 2018
Viruses alter cellular physiology and function to establish cellular environment conducive for viral proliferation. Viral immune evasion is an essential aspect of viral persistence and proliferation.

Identification of Fis1 Interactors in Toxoplasma gondii Reveals a Novel Protein Required for Peripheral Distribution of the Mitochondrion [PDF]

, 2020
Toxoplasma gondii’s single mitochondrion is very dynamic and undergoes morphological changes throughout the parasite’s life cycle. During parasite division, the mitochondrion elongates, enters the daughter cells just prior to cytokinesis, and undergoes ...

Mechanisms of Mitochondrial Fission and Fusion [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013
Mitochondria continually change shape through the combined actions of fission, fusion, and movement along cytoskeletal tracks. The lengths of mitochondria and the degree to which they form closed networks are determined by the balance between fission and fusion rates. These rates are influenced by metabolic and pathogenic conditions inside mitochondria

Integrating multiple aspects of mitochondrial dynamics in neurons: Age-related differences and dynamic changes in a chronic rotenone model

Neurobiology of Disease, 2011
Changes in dynamic properties of mitochondria are increasingly implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Parkinson's disease (PD). Static changes in mitochondrial morphology, often under acutely toxic conditions, are commonly utilized as ...

The mitochondrial fission adaptors Caf4 and Mdv1 are not functionally equivalent. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Mitochondrial fission in eukaryotes is mediated by protein complexes that encircle and divide mitochondrial tubules. In budding yeast, fission requires the membrane-anchored protein Fis1 and the dynamin-related GTPase Dnm1.

Drosophila Parkin requires PINK1 for mitochondrial translocation and ubiquitinates Mitofusin [PDF]

, 2010
Loss of the E3 ubiquitin ligase Parkin causes early onset Parkinson's disease, a neurodegenerative disorder of unknown etiology. Parkin has been linked to multiple cellular processes including protein degradation, mitochondrial homeostasis, and autophagy;

Mitochondrial fission/fusion and cardiomyopathy [PDF]

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2016
Mitochondria are highly abundant in and essential to the beat-to-beat contractile performance of hearts. However, relatively few cardiac diseases have been attributed to primary mitochondrial dysfunction. The paucity of evidence for 'primary mitochondrial cardiac diseases' may be because such an entity does not exist.

Essential lipid autacoids rewire mitochondrial energy efficiency in metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.
