The mitophagy receptor BNIP3L/Nix coordinates nuclear calcium signaling to modulate the muscle phenotype
2023-03-18
Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial quality control is critical in muscle to ensure both contractile and metabolic function. Nix is a BCL-2 family member, mitophagy receptor, and has been implicated in muscle atrophy. Human GWAS suggests altered Nix expression could predispose to manifestations of mitochondrial disease. To interrogate Nix function, we generated a muscle-specific knockout model. Nix knockout mice displayed a ragged-red...
