Function

Component of the MICOS complex, a large protein complex of the mitochondrial inner membrane that plays crucial roles in the maintenance of crista junctions, inner membrane architecture, and formation of contact sites to the outer membrane (PubMed:22114354, PubMed:25781180, PubMed:32567732, PubMed:33130824). Plays an important role in the maintenance of the MICOS complex stability and the mitochondrial cristae morphology (PubMed:22114354, PubMed:25781180, PubMed:32567732, PubMed:33130824).

Activity summary

Mitofilin also known as mitofilin or MIM is a protein with a mass of approximately 88 kDa. This protein is integral to the inner mitochondrial membrane. Mitofilin is found in various tissues with high expression in the heart and skeletal muscle indicating its significant role in energy-demanding tissues. It is the central component of the mitochondrial inner membrane organizing system (MINOS) which plays a fundamental role in maintaining the mitochondrial architecture.

Biological function summary

Within the mitochondrial environment mitofilin contributes to maintaining cristae morphology which is essential for optimal mitochondrial respiration and energy production. As part of the MINOS complex mitofilin interacts with other proteins such as Mic60 and Mic10 stabilizing the structure of crista junctions. This process ensures efficient electron transport chain function ultimately supporting ATP synthesis. Without effective shaping of the cristae cellular energy metabolism deteriorates.

Pathways

Research has highlighted the importance of mitofilin in apoptosis and bioenergetics pathways. It interacts with proteins like OPA1 a dynamin-related GTPase important for mitochondrial fusion and energy metabolism. Additionally mitofilin influences the release of cytochrome c an important step in the initiation of apoptosis. Proper functioning of these pathways is critical for cellular balance and survival showing mitofilin’s broad impact on cellular processes.

Associated diseases and disorders

Mitofilin has links to mitochondrial myopathies and cardiomyopathies. These disorders stem from impaired mitochondrial function significantly affecting muscle tissues and heart performance. Disruption in mitofilin expression or function can lead to compromised energy production contributing to these conditions. Furthermore mitofilin has associations with proteins like Drp1 involved in mitochondrial dynamics and this relationship can influence the progression and severity of mitochondrial-related diseases.

    ab198036 staining Mitofilin in HeLa cells. The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min), permeabilised in 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked in 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated with ab198036 at 1/50 dilution (shown in red) and Alexa Fluor® 488 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker ab195887, Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 488, shown in green) at 1/167 dilution overnight at +4°C. Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI.

    Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).
