Mutations in PINK1 and Parkin Impair Ubiquitination of Mitofusins in Human Fibroblasts

PINK1 and Parkin mutations cause recessive Parkinson's disease (PD). In Drosophila and SH-SY5Y cells, Parkin is recruited by PINK1 to damaged mitochondria, where it ubiquitinates Mitofusins and consequently promotes mitochondrial fission and mitophagy. Here, we investigated the impact of mutati...
