Mitofusin 2 tethers endoplasmic reticulum to mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2008
Juxtaposition between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria is a common structural feature, providing the physical basis for intercommunication during Ca(2+) signalling; yet, the molecular mechanisms controlling this interaction are unknown.

Highlighting the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria connection: Focus on Mitofusin 2 [PDF]

open access: yesPharmacological Research, 2018
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 ...

Conditional deletion of myeloid-specific mitofusin 2 but not mitofusin 1 promotes kidney fibrosis

Kidney International, 2022
Macrophages exert critical functions during kidney injury, inflammation, and tissue repair or fibrosis. Mitochondrial structural and functional aberrations due to an imbalance in mitochondrial fusion/fission processes are implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease.

Mitofusin-2 in cancer: Friend or foe?

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2022
Cancer 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.

Targeted Deletion of Mitofusin 1 and Mitofusin 2 Causes Female Infertility and Loss of Follicular Reserve

Reproductive Sciences, 2022
Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that regulate their size, shape, and morphology through mechanisms called fusion and fission, to continually adapt themselves to their bioenergetic environment. These mechanisms play a critical role to maintain the mitochondrial function under metabolic and environmental stress.

Mitofusin-2 is a novel direct target of p53

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2010
The 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.
