MIEF1/2 function as adaptors to recruit Drp1 to mitochondria and regulate the association of Drp1 with Mff

Abstract Mitochondrial dynamics is a fundamental cellular process and recruitment of Drp1 to mitochondria is an essential step in mitochondrial fission. Mff and MIEF1/2 (MiD51/49) serve as key receptors for recruitment of Drp1 to mitochondria in mammals. However, if and how these receptors work toge...
