Mitofusin 1 Proteins and Enzymes

MFN1 (Mitofusin-1) is a nuclear encoded mitochondrial membrane protein that mediates mitochondrial fusion and morphology in mammalian cells. MFN1 and MFN2 are homologs of the Drosophila protein Fuzzy Onion (Fzo) that interact with each other to facilitate mitochondrial targeting. MFN1 is ubiquitously expressed,with slightly higher leves detectedl i...
