Characterization of the Mitochondrial Fusion Protein Mgm1 Reveals Oligomerization and GTPase Activity

Mitochondrial dynamics resulting from competing fusion and fission reactions are required for normal cellular function in eukaryotes. Mgm1, a dynamin related protein, is a key component in yeast mitochondrial fusion and is evolutionarily conserved. Previous in vivo studies suggest that the GTPase...
