Nat Commun . 2019 Mar; 10(1):1432. PMID: 30926815
Of the four separate PE biosynthetic pathways in eukaryotes, one occurs in the mitochondrial inner membrane (IM) and is executed by phosphatidylserine decarboxylase (Psd1). Deletion of Psd1 is lethal in...

Cell Rep . 2017 Jun; 19(12):2557-2571. PMID: 28636943
OPA1 is a GTPase that controls mitochondrial fusion, cristae integrity, and mtDNA maintenance. In humans, eight isoforms are expressed as combinations of long and short forms, but it is unclear...
