Dynamin-related protein 1 has membrane constricting and severing abilities sufficient for mitochondrial and peroxisomal fission
Drp1 and Dnm2 have been implicated in mitochondrial fission events, although their specific activities in constriction and scission have been unclear. Here, the authors demonstrate that Drp1 is sufficient to constrict and sever mitochondrial and peroxisomal membranes in the absence of Dnm proteins.
