What's a GeneRIF?

A double deletion mutant in which two essential components of the fission and fusion machinery, Dnm1 and Mgm1, are simultaneously ablated are characterized by impaired respiration and a decrease in mitophagy and replicative lifespan
Title: Simultaneous impairment of mitochondrial fission and fusion reduces mitophagy and shortens replicative lifespan.
Mgm1 membrane interactions impose a mechanical force on the membrane to overcome the hydrophilic repulsion of the phospholipid head groups and initiate the fusion reaction.
Title: Mitochondrial Genome Maintenance 1 (Mgm1) Protein Alters Membrane Topology and Promotes Local Membrane Bending.
Psd1 promotes mitochondrial fusion by regulating the biophysical properties of the mitochondrial membrane and alternative topogenesis of Mgm1.
Title: Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase 1 (Psd1) promotes mitochondrial fusion by regulating the biophysical properties of the mitochondrial membrane and alternative topogenesis of mitochondrial genome maintenance protein 1 (Mgm1).
Mechanistic details of the two known in vivo functions of Mgm1, membrane fusion and cristae maintenance.
Title: Membrane tethering and nucleotide-dependent conformational changes drive mitochondrial genome maintenance (Mgm1) protein-mediated membrane fusion.
Absence of mitochondrial fusion in the Deltamgm1 mutant leads to a striking reduction of both replicative and chronological lifespan.
Title: Unopposed mitochondrial fission leads to severe lifespan shortening.
Data show that charged residues in the regions flanking the first segment in Mgm1p critically affect the ratio between the two isoforms, providing new insight of charged residues in the insertion of proteins into the mitochondrial inner membrane.
Title: Charged flanking residues control the efficiency of membrane insertion of the first transmembrane segment in yeast mitochondrial Mgm1p.
transmembrane segments of inner membrane proteins that are normally not processed by Pcp1 become cleavable when put in place of the authentic 'rhomboid cleavage region' (RCR) of Mgm1
Title: Intramembrane proteolysis of Mgm1 by the mitochondrial rhomboid protease is highly promiscuous regarding the sequence of the cleaved hydrophobic segment.
Mgm1 promotes the fusion of opposing mitochondrial inner membranes
Title: Phospholipid association is essential for dynamin-related protein Mgm1 to function in mitochondrial membrane fusion.
Coassembly of Mgm1 isoforms requires cardiolipin and mediates mitochondrial inner membrane fusion.
Title: Coassembly of Mgm1 isoforms requires cardiolipin and mediates mitochondrial inner membrane fusion.
Trans Mgm1 interactions on opposing inner membranes function similarly to tether and fuse inner membranes as well as maintain crista structures and propose a model for how the mitochondrial dynamins function to facilitate fusion.
Title: Mitochondrial inner-membrane fusion and crista maintenance requires the dynamin-related GTPase Mgm1.
