Identification of novel modulators of mitochondrial function by a genome-wide RNAi screen in Drosophila melanogaster

Abstract: Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with many human diseases. There has not been a systematic genetic approach for identifying regulators of basal mitochondrial biogenesis and function in higher eukaryotes. We performed a genome-wide RNA interference (RNAi) screen in Drosophila cells using mitochondrial Citrate synthase (CS) activity as the primary readout. We screened 13,071 dsRNAs and identified 152 genes that modulate CS activity. These modulators are involved in a wide range of biological processes and… Show more

“…This finding is in keeping with a previous study that showed that an HDAC6 inhibitor improved survival and reduced bacteremia in a murine sepsis model (35). Moreover, previous studies have linked HDAC6 to the control of mitochondrial function (43,44), and a very recent study reported that HDAC6 inhibition disrupted mitochondrial membrane potential and enhanced ROS production in melanoma cells (45). Collectively, these studies suggest that HDAC6 may have a regulatory role in controlling mitoROS production in infected macrophages such that inhibition of HDAC6 increases mitoROS concentrations to facilitate bacterial clearance.…”

“…It has been proposed that mitochondria contain two of the cAMP effectors, EPAC and PKA (Schwoch et al, 1990; Sardanelli et al, 2006; Chen et al, 2008). EPAC appears to localize to the mitochondria in a cell cycle-dependent manner; however, its precise submitochondrial localization and its actions are still unknown (Qiao et al, 2002).…”

“…In the ovary, they both localize to NC and oocyte plasma membranes and to the inner rim of the ring canals (Dodson et al, 1998;Takahashi et al, 2005). Notably, SPOON/Yu (CG3249) and src42A were recently picked up in a genomewide iRNA screen for modulators of mitochondrial function (Chen et al, 2008), suggesting that they may fulfill roles similar to those of their mammalian counterparts.…”
