Research Abstract |
In order to identify proteolysis factors, which are involved in maintaining mitochondrial quality, genetic screening was carried out, using Schizosaccharomyces pombe as a model organism. As a result, one potential E3 ubiquitin ligase (RING finger type) was identified to be required for mitochondrial morphology, mitophagy, and maintenance of life span of S.pombe cells in G0/quiescent phase.
