Title:Mitochondrial homeostasis: How do dimers of mitofusins mediate mitochondrial fusion?
Creators Name:Daumke, O. and Roux, A.
Abstract:Mitochondria have high fusion and fission rates to maintain their size and number throughout the cell cycle. How is fusion mediated? New structural studies propose mechanisms by which the dynamin-like mitofusin proteins promote fusion of mitochondria.
