The Role of Mitofusin Proteins in Mitochondrial Fusion and Disease
We have investigated the role of mitofusin proteins in mitochondrial fusion and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease Type 2A (CMT2A). Mitofusins (Mfn1 and Mfn2) are required for mammalian mitochondrial fusion. In structure-function analysis, we have identified loss-of-function mutations in mitofusin GTPase...
