Mitotic redistribution of the mitochondrial network by Miro and Cenp-F

Abstract: Although chromosome partitioning during mitosis is well studied, the molecular mechanisms that allow proper segregation of cytoplasmic organelles in human cells are poorly understood. Here we show that mitochondria interact with growing microtubule tips and are transported towards the daughter cell periphery at the end of mitosis. This phenomenon is promoted by the direct and cell cycle-dependent interaction of the mitochondrial protein Miro and the cytoskeletal-associated protein Cenp-F. Cenp-F is recruited t… Show more

“…This is in stark contrast with other EF-hand proteins, and difficult to reconcile with the strong effects of Ca 2 + on mitochondrial transport. Another observation that we have made is that expressing Ca 2 + -binding mutants of Miro did not yield the same result as artificially lowering cytosolic [Ca 2 + ], suggesting that the mutants do not faithfully mimic Ca 2 + -free Miro [4]. Clearly, more studies are necessary to fully understand Ca 2 + -dependent regulation of Miro-driven mitochondrial transport.…”

“…First, Cenp-F associates with growing microtubules. In particular, Cenp-F appears to connect mitochondria to polymerizing tips of microtubules, and mitochondria can 'track' growing microtubule tips over distances of a few micrometers in a Cenp-F-dependent manner [4]. The second observation relates to Cenp-F function at the kinetochore.…”
