Structural insights into GTP-coupled conformational changes in Mfn1 revealed by time-resolved transition metal ion FRET.
Outer mitochondrial membrane fusion is mediated by the mitofusin paralogs Mfn1 and Mfn2. Nucleotide-driven self-assembly and conformational changes are required for regulated membrane fusion activity,...
