OPA1 requires mitofusin 1 to promote mitochondrial fusion
Open accessAbstract
The regulated equilibrium between mitochondrial fusion and fission is essential to maintain integrity of the organelle. Mechanisms of mitochondrial fusion are largely uncharacterized in mammalian cells. It is unclear whether OPA1, a dynamin-related protein of the inner membrane mutated in autosomal dominant optic atrophy, participates in fusion or fission. OPA1 promoted the formation of a branched network of elongated mitochondria, requiring the integrity of both its GTPase and C-terminal coiled-coil domain. Stable reduction of OPA1 levels by RNA interference resulted in small, fragmented, and scattered mitochondria. Levels of OPA1 did not affect mitochondrial docking, but they correlated with the extent of fusion as measured by polyethylene glycol mitochondrial fusion assays. A genetic analysis proved that OPA1 was unable to tubulate and fuse mitochondria lacking the outer membrane mitofusin 1 but not mitofusin 2. Our data show that OPA1 functionally requires mitofusin 1 to regulate mitochondrial fusion and reveal a specific functional difference between mitofusin 1 and 2.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
