Highlighting the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria connection: Focus on Mitofusin 2
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the mitochondrial network are two highly interconnected cellular structures. By proteinaceous tethers, specialized membrane domains of the ER are tightly associated with the outer membrane of mitochondria, allowing the assembly of signaling platforms where different cell functions take place or are modulated, such as ...

Mitofusin-2 in cancer: Friend or foe?
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2022Cancer is a category of disorders characterized by excessive cell proliferation with the ability to infiltrate or disseminate to other organs of the body. Mitochondrial dysfunction, as one of the most prominent hallmarks of cancer cells, has been related to the onset and development of various cancers.

Structural Basis of Mitochondrial Tethering by Mitofusin Complexes
Vesicle fusion involves vesicle tethering, docking, and membrane merger. We show that mitofusin, an integral mitochondrial membrane protein, is required on adjacent mitochondria to mediate fusion, which indicates that mitofusin complexes act in trans ...

Mitofusin-2 is a novel direct target of p53
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2010The tumor suppressor p53 modulates transcription of a number of target genes involved in cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, DNA repair, and other important cellular responses. Mitofusin-2 (Mfn2) is a novel suppressor of cell proliferation that may also exert apoptotic effects via the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway.

Role of mitofusin 2 in cardiovascular oxidative injury
Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2010Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles with constant shape changes regulated by fusion and fission events. In addition to regulating mitochondrial morphology, mitochondrial fusion/fission is involved in fundamental mitochondrial biological processes, including mitochondrial metabolism, energization, respiration, mitochondrial membrane potential ...
