Mitophagy in skeletal muscle: Impact of ageing, exercise and disuse
Abstract Skeletal muscle plays an important role in whole‐body health, quality of life and regulation of metabolism. The maintenance of a healthy mitochondrial pool is imperative for the preservation of skeletal muscle quality and is mediated through mitochondrial quality control consisting of mitochondrial turnover mediated by a balance between ...

Prohibitin 2 (PHB2) is an evolutionarily conserved and ubiquitously expressed multifunctional protein which is present in various cellular compartments including the nucleus. However, mechanisms underlying various functions of PHB2 are not fully explored yet.

ABSTRACT Background Barth syndrome (BTHS) is a rare X‐linked mitochondrial disorder caused by mutations in the TAFAZZIN gene, which disrupts cardiolipin (CL) remodelling and mitochondrial function. While cardiac manifestations of BTHS are well characterized in male patients, the mechanisms underlying skeletal muscle weakness and fatigability are poorly

Skp2B attenuates p53 function by inhibiting prohibitin [PDF]
The F‐box protein Skp2 and its isoform Skp2B are both overexpressed in breast cancers. Skp2 alters the activity of p53 by inhibiting its interaction with p300 and by promoting p300 degradation. Here, we report that Skp2B also attenuates the activity of p53; however, this effect is independent of p300, suggesting that another mechanism might be involved.

Role of prohibitins for proteolysis in yeast and murine mitochondria [PDF]
Prohibitins, Phb1 and Phb2, are evolutionary conserved proteins with diverse cellular localization and different functions. In yeast, prohibitins form a high molecular weight complex in the inner mitochondrial membrane which physically interacts with the

The complexities of respiratory chain biogenesis and maintenance in yeast mitochondria
Abstract Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation is the most efficient way of energy conversion for eukaryotic cells. It is executed by a series of high‐molecular weight enzyme complexes in the inner mitochondrial membrane that were acquired during endosymbiosis at the root of eukaryotic evolution.

Prohibitin 1 modulates mitochondrial function of Stat3 [PDF]
Mitochondrial dysfunction in intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) is thought to precede the onset of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Expression of Prohibitin 1 (PHB), a mitochondrial protein required for optimal electron transport chain (ETC) activity, is decreased in mucosal biopsies during active and inactive IBD.

Mitochondrial and chloroplast stress responses are modulated in distinct touch and chemical inhibition phases [PDF]
Previous studies have identified a range of transcription factors that modulate retrograde regulation of mitochondrial and chloroplast functions in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana).

Structural and Functional Characterization of EXPO‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles in Plants
In this study, 3D electron tomography (ET), cryo‐ET, and immunogold transmission electron microscopy (TEM) are employed to characterize plant extracellular vesicles (EVs) under physiological conditions. EVs are classified into three distinct categories according to their size, content, and molecular‐marker profiles. Furthermore, Exo70E2‐positive medium

Mitochondrial Ca uptake correlates with the severity of the symptoms in autosomal dominant optic atrophy. [PDF]
The most frequent form of hereditary blindness, autosomal dominant optic atrophy (ADOA), is caused by the mutation of the mitochondrial protein Opa1 and the ensuing degeneration of retinal ganglion cells.
