Putting the brakes on mitochondrial fusion to prevent escape of mitochondrial DNA
Nature, Published online: 19 February 2025; doi:10.1038/d41586-025-00303-zCellular organelles called mitochondria contain DNA and can fuse together or split apart. It emerges that excess fusion is averted by stress-activated regulators, preventing the potentially harmful release of mitochondrial DNA.
