Constriction and Dnm1p Recruitment Are Distinct Processes in Mitochondrial Fission

Open access

Abstract

Mitochondria undergo cycles of fusion and fission crucial for organelle homeostasis. Fission is regulated partially by recruitment of the large GTPase Dnm1p to the outer mitochondrial membrane. Using three-dimensional time-lapse fluorescence imaging of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, we found that Dnm1p-EGFP appears and disappears at “hot spots” along mitochondrial tubes. It forms patches that convert rapidly into different shapes regardless of whether mitochondrial fission ensues or not. Moreover, the thickness of the mitochondrial matrix displays frequent temporal fluctuations apparently unrelated to fission or to recruitment of Dnm1p-EGFP. These results suggest that mitochondrial fission requires coordination of at least two distinct processes.

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.
