This study identifies structural elements and dynamics of the Mic60-Mic19 subcomplex crucial for MICOS assembly and crista junction formation.

The paper maps the human mitochondrial complexome at super-resolution, revealing protein complexes, networks, and interactions involved in mitochondrial function and disease.

This paper structurally characterizes CCDC127 as a mitochondrial intermembrane space protein involved in the mitoskeleton framework.

The paper identifies CCDC127 as a mitochondrial disulfide relay substrate that interacts with MICOS components, revealing its role in OMM topology and mitochondrial membrane organization.

The paper develops hMultiCLEM, a high-resolution screening pipeline combining EM and multiplexed human cell pools to identify proteins affecting mitochondrial cristae shape, uncovering MISHA linked to Meniere's disease.

The paper investigates how defective cardiolipin remodeling in Barth Syndrome affects pancreatic islet function and metabolism, finding improved glucose tolerance and compensatory metabolic adaptations in a mouse model.

The paper introduces iAPEX, an improved APEX-based proximity labeling method for live-cell proteomics, and applies it to study primary cilia in Xenopus laevis, identifying new ciliary proteins and validating existing ones.

The paper identifies Mar26 as a determinant in cytochrome bc1 complex assembly, showing it connects assembly intermediates to MICOS to coordinate complex III maturation at crista junctions.
