    • Mutations in POLG, encoding POL gamma A, the catalytic subunit of the mitochondrial DNA polymerase, cause a spectrum of disorders characterized by mtDNA instability. However, the molecular pathogenesis of POLG-related diseases is poorly understood and efficient treatments are missing. Here, we generate the Polg(A449T/A449T) mouse model, which reproduces the A467T change, the most common human recessive mutation of POLG. We show that the mouse A449T mutation impairs DNA binding and mtDNA synthesis activities of POL gamma, leading to a stalling phenotype. Most importantly, the A449T mutation also strongly impairs interactions with POL gamma B, the accessory subunit of the POL gamma holoenzyme. This allows the free POL gamma A to become a substrate for LONP1 protease degradation, leading to dramatically reduced levels of POL gamma A in A449T mouse tissues. Therefore, in addition to its role as a processivity factor, POL gamma B acts to stabilize POL gamma A and to prevent LONP1-dependent degradation. Notably, we validated this mechanism for other disease-associated mutations affecting the interaction between the two POL gamma subunits. We suggest that targeting POL gamma A turnover can be exploited as a target for the development of future therapies. [GRAPHICS] .

  • Structural basis for a complex I mutation that blocks pathological ROS production
  • 2021

    • Mitochondrial complex I is central to the pathological reactive oxygen species (ROS) production that underlies cardiac ischemia–reperfusion (IR) injury. ND6-P25L mice are homoplasmic for a disease-causing mtDNA point mutation encoding the P25L substitution in the ND6 subunit of complex I. The cryo-EM structure of ND6-P25L complex I revealed subtle structural changes that facilitate rapid conversion to the “deactive” state, usually formed only after prolonged inactivity. Despite its tendency to adopt the “deactive” state, the mutant complex is fully active for NADH oxidation, but cannot generate ROS by reverse electron transfer (RET). ND6-P25L mitochondria function normally, except for their lack of RET ROS production, and ND6-P25L mice are protected against cardiac IR injury in vivo. Thus, this single point mutation in complex I, which does not affect oxidative phosphorylation but renders the complex unable to catalyse RET, demonstrates the pathological role of ROS production by RET during IR injury. © 2021, The Author(s).
