SAMM50 Affects Mitochondrial Morphology through the Association of Drp1 in Mammalian Cells

Abstract: Edited by Barry HalliwellMitochondrial fission and fusion activities are important for cell survival and function. Drp1 is a GTPase protein responsible for mitochondrial division, and SAMM50 is responsible for protein sorting and assembly. We demonstrated that SAMM50 overexpression results in Drp1-dependent mitochondrial fragmentation in HeLa cells. However, the mitochondrial fragmentation induced by SAMM50 overexpression could be reversed through co-expression with MFN2. Furthermore, SAMM50 interacts with Drp… Show more

“…In the present study, we found that SAMM50 is widely expressed across different tissues in buffalo, especially in tissues with high level in energy metabolism such as the heart, liver, muscle, and adipose (Figure 3D). These results are consistent with its vital role in mitochondria (Liu et al, 2016;Jian et al, 2018). However, the effect of SAMM50 on adipogenic differentiation of adipocytes had not been revealed.…”

“…FABP4 is a significant protein in fatty acid transportation (Boord et al, 2002) and adipocyte differentiation (Garin-Shkolnik et al, 2014). SAMM50 is a mitochondrial membrane protein and is associated with energy metabolism in mammals (Liu et al, 2016). Considering the function of host genes and the lowest p value (Table 1), we focused on a lncRNA transcribed from the antisense strand of SAMM50, lncSAMM50.…”

“…The picture has been recently further complicated by additional OMM proteins shown to also promote Drp1 recruitment, such as SAMM50, a component of the SAM complex, which inserts beta barrels in the OMM [ 141 ]. SAMM50 has been shown to interact with Drp1 and induce Drp1-dependent mitochondrial fission through an unknown mechanism [ 142 ]. Interestingly, SAMM50 could coordinate outer and inner membrane fission, as it also interacts with VDAC, a component of OMM/IMM contact sites and with the MINOS/MITOS complex in the IMM.…”

“…Sam50, an important mitochondria outer membrane protein, encoded by the SAMM50 gene and involved in the regulation of mitophagy, mitochondrial morphology and removal of ROS [ 175 ]. Several SNPs were linked with NAFLD; however, the exact mechanism, leading to hepatic lipids accumulation and NAFLD progression was not known.…”
