26 FRIENDLY - a conserved CLU-type protein

27 Mitochondria in wild type and in friendly move on actin friendly wild type

28 Mitochondria in wild type and in friendly move on actin friendly + 2 µm latrunculin B to depolymerise actin

29 Actin dynamics disrupt clusters in friendly Watch a cluster build until it is disrupted at +60s.

30 Clusters do not move on microtubules Mitochondria (green) and microtubules (red) Treated with oryzalin to depolymerise microtubules

31 clueless, the FRIENDLY orthologue in Drosophila has been genetically implicated in mitochondrial quality control Cox RT & Spradling AC (2009) Disease Models and Mechanisms. 2:

32 Clusters do not associate with MT plus ends Mitochondria (green) and EB1b (red)

33 FRIENDLY-GFP associates with mitochondria Mitochondria - cyan; FRIENDLY-GFP - magenta

34 How do clusters form?

35 What about fusion? Mitochondria must meet before they can fuse! Mitochondria meet by moving on actin! Mitochondrial association time is increased in friendly

36 Membrane potential pulsing

37 Membrane potential pulsing is increased in friendly Hypothesised to be due to formation of a fusion pore

38 Exchange of matrix content is increased in friendly

39 But fusion is not panmictic in clusters

40 Fusion Required for mitochondrial homeostasis! Complementation.! Mitochondrial quality control?

41 Whole organism growth defects

42 Increased cell death

43 Increased autophagy

44 A role in innate immunity?

45 Conclusions FRIENDLY is required to regulate the length of time mitochondria interact. The time taken to interact, and/or the ability of mitochondria to freely interact with each other, is important for mitochondrial, cell and plant health. FRIENDLY is implicated in mitochondrial quality control. Fusion - first gene identified as being involved in plant mitochondrial fusion. Clear role of mitochondrial dynamics in the maintenance of mitochondrial, cell and plant health.
