Onsite GTP fuelling via DYNAMO1 drives division of mitochondria and peroxisomes

Mitochondria and peroxisomes require a dynamin-like GTPase to remodel membranes during division. Here the authors identify DYNAMO1, a nucleoside diphosphate kinase-like protein that generates a local source of GTP to promote constriction of the division machinery and produce daughter organelles.
