MICU1 and MICU2 Finely Tune the Mitochondrial Ca2+ Uniporter by Exerting Opposite Effects on MCU Activity
Mitochondrial calcium accumulation was recently shown to depend on a complex composed of an inner-membrane channel (MCU and MCUb) and regulatory subunits (MICU1, MCUR1, and EMRE). A fundamental property of MCU is low activity at resting cytosolic Ca(2+) concentrations, preventing deleterious Ca(2+) cycling and organelle overload. Here we demonstrate that these properties are ensured by a regula...
متن کاملMitochondrial calcium uniporter Mcu controls excitotoxicity and is transcriptionally repressed by neuroprotective nuclear calcium signals
The recent identification of the mitochondrial Ca(2+) uniporter gene (Mcu/Ccdc109a) has enabled us to address its role, and that of mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake, in neuronal excitotoxicity. Here we show that exogenously expressed Mcu is mitochondrially localized and increases mitochondrial Ca(2+) levels following NMDA receptor activation, leading to increased mitochondrial membrane depolarizatio...
متن کاملThe Mitochondrial Ca2+ Uniporter MCU Is Essential for Glucose-Induced ATP Increases in Pancreatic β-Cells
Glucose induces insulin release from pancreatic β-cells by stimulating ATP synthesis, membrane depolarisation and Ca(2+) influx. As well as activating ATP-consuming processes, cytosolic Ca(2+) increases may also potentiate mitochondrial ATP synthesis. Until recently, the ability to study the role of mitochondrial Ca(2+) transport in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion has been hindered by the ...
متن کاملCa2+-Dependent Inactivation of the Mitochondrial Ca2+ Uniporter Involves Proton Flux through the ATP Synthase
Stimulation of receptors on the surface of animal cells often evokes cellular responses by raising intracellular Ca(2+) concentration. The rise in cytoplasmic Ca(2+) drives a plethora of processes, including neurotransmitter release, muscle contraction, and cell growth and proliferation. Mitochondria help shape intracellular Ca(2+) signals through their ability to rapidly take up significant am...
متن کاملMICU1 motifs define mitochondrial calcium uniporter binding and activity.
Resting mitochondrial matrix Ca(2+) is maintained through a mitochondrial calcium uptake 1 (MICU1)-established threshold inhibition of mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) activity. It is not known how MICU1 interacts with MCU to establish this Ca(2+) threshold for mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake and MCU activity. Here, we show that MICU1 localizes to the mitochondrial matrix side of the inner mit...
