A system-level understanding of how subtle regulation of mitochondrial fission and fusion interacts with the larger mitochondrial and cellular environment will clearly be critical for ...

The machineries of mitochondrial fusion and fission are regulated by many cellular pathways, including proteolytic processing, ubiquitylation, sumoylation, phosphorylation and dephosphorylation.

Mitophagy maintains cellular health by selectively enclosing damaged, depolarized mitochondria in autophagic vacuoles for elimination by lysosomes (Figure 3A). 52,53 Fission isolates depolarized ...

Scientists in the United States have designed a microwire solar cell that could reportedly enable the coupling of singlet fission with silicon. Key to their achievement was an interface that transfers ...

Mitochondrial fission is the process by which these energy-generating structures, or organelles, divide and multiply as part of normal cellular maintenance; the organelles divide not only when a ...

Researchers at The Wistar Institute have identified a previously unknown mechanism by which viruses can reprogram ...

Scientists have uncovered a novel mechanism by which abnormalities in mitochondrial fission in endothelial cells contribute to inflammation and oxidative stress in the cardiovascular system.

that participate in various cellular processes, including the fission of mitochondria and peroxisomes. 1,2 Three autosomal dominant neuropathies have been linked to mutations in three separate ...

“The reason is the cellular memory created by the daily stimulus of physical activity from mitochondrial fission and fusion. This protects the organism during aging,” he said. Genetic engineering ...

Fission yeast is a single-celled fungus (yeast). Because their cells function much like our own, and it is an important model for studying cellular processes frequently associated with heritable ...

A process called singlet fission is at the center of the study. In future generations of solar cells, it should improve the utilization of light and thus increase efficiency. Until now ...
