Selective removal of deletion-bearing mitochondrial DNA in heteroplasmic Drosophila
Heteroplasmy, in which mutant and wild-type mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) coexist in a cell, can result in diseases. Here the authors generate transgenic flies with heteroplasmic mtDNA in flight muscles, and show that stimulation of autophagy, or a decrease in mitofusin, promotes clearance of mutant mtD...
