A role for Mfb1p in region-specific anchorage of high-functioning mitochondria and lifespan in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Mitochondria are asymmetrically inherited during cell division, a process that can affect cell fate and lifespan. Here the authors describe a mechanism for mitochondrial quality control in yeast that maintains a reservoir of high-functioning mitochondria in mother cells and preserves maternal reprod...
