abstract = {Mitochondrial morphology changes in response to various
stimuli but the significance of this is unclear. In a screen
for mutants with abnormal mitochondrial morphology, we
identified MMA-1, the Caenorhabditis elegans homolog of the
French Canadian Leigh Syndrome protein LRPPRC (leucine-rich
pentatricopeptide repeat containing). We demonstrate that
reducing mma-1 or LRPPRC function causes mitochondrial
hyperfusion. Reducing mma-1/LRPPRC function also decreases
the activity of complex IV of the electron transport chain,
however without affecting cellular ATP levels. Preventing
mitochondrial hyperfusion in mma-1 animals causes larval
arrest and embryonic lethality. Furthermore, prolonged
LRPPRC knock-down in mammalian cells leads to mitochondrial
fragmentation and decreased levels of ATP. These findings
indicate that in a mma-1/LRPPRC-deficient background,
hyperfusion allows mitochondria to maintain their functions
despite a reduction in complex IV activity. Our data reveal
an evolutionary conserved mechanism that is triggered by
reduced complex IV function and that induces mitochondrial
hyperfusion to transiently compensate for a drop in the
activity of the electron transport chain.},
