Abstract Mitochondrial homeostasis is maintained through complex regulatory mechanisms, including the balance of mitochondrial dynamics involving fusion and fission processes. A central player in this regulation is the ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS), which controls the degradation of pivotal mitochondrial proteins. In this study, we identified cullin–RING E3 ligase 2 (CRL2) and its substrate receptor, FEM1B, as critical regulators of mitochondrial dynamics.
Highlights • The Fe-S proteome is destabilized when the synthesis of its cofactor is impaired • METTL17, a mitoribosome assembly factor, is depleted without Fe-S cluster biosynthesis • METTL17 binds a previously unrecognized [4Fe4S]2+ cluster • Overexpression of METTL17 rescues the bioenergetic defects of frataxin null cells Summary Friedreich’s ataxia (FA) is a debilitating, multisystemic disease caused by the depletion of frataxin (FXN), a mitochondrial iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster biogenesis...
Accepted manuscripts are PDF versions of the author’s final manuscript, as accepted for publication by the journal but prior to copyediting or typesetting. They can be cited using the author(s), article title, journal title, year of online publication, and DOI. They will be replaced by the final typeset articles, which may therefore contain changes. The DOI will remain the same throughout.
