Methylation is essential not only for RNA stability — we show it’s structurally required for forming the peptidyl transferase center (PTC). Without it, the mitoribosome stalls at an immature stage, unable to build its catalytic core.

By depleting mitochondria of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), we disrupt canonical rRNA processing at the ribosomal junctions in MEFs and skeletal muscle. This leads to accumulation of unprocessed transcripts and defective ribosome assembly.

The mitochondrial methylation potential gates mitoribosome assembly Nature Communications - Here, using long-read RNA sequencing, SILAC proteomics, and cryo-EM, the authors show that loss of mitochondrial methylation impairs rRNA processing and ribosome maturation,...

Excited to share our latest work on how mitochondrial methylation shapes gene expression. Using long-read RNAseq and cryo-EM, we uncover two methylation-dependent checkpoints in ribosome biogenesis.
Thanks to everyone invovled. @ruthicglasgow.bsky.social @amunts.bsky.social

Coupling of ribosome biogenesis and translation initiation in human mitochondria - Nature Communications Mitochondrial ribosome biogenesis requires the assistance of multiple assembly factors. Here, the authors provide insights into the essential role of the GTPase MTG3 during small subunit biogenesis an...

We argued that since mtDNA mutation accumulation is progressive, cellular mechanisms must influence its pathogenicity. Through a genetic screen in fruit flies, we identified pathways that can rescue a lethal mtDNA mutator phenotype. We are excited to test this in higher species.

Preventing excessive autophagy protects from the pathology of mtDNA mutations in Drosophila melanogaster - Nature Communications Finding ways to compensate for mitochondrial dysfunction is essential. Here, the authors performed a genome-wide genetic screen to identify genes that mitigate the larvae lethal phenotype of a fruit f...
