Summary: In neurons, it is commonly assumed that mitochondrial replication only occurs in the cell body, after which the mitochondria must travel to the neuron’s periphery. However, while mitochondrial DNA replication has been observed to occur away from the cell body, the specific mechanisms involved remain elusive. Using EdU-labelling in mouse primary neurons, we developed a tool to determine the mitochondrial replication rate. Taking of advantage of microfluidic devices, we confirmed that mitochondrial replication also occurs locally in the periphery of neurons. To achieve this, mitochondria require de novo nuclear-encoded, but not mitochondrial-encoded protein translation. Following a proteomic screen comparing synaptic with non-synaptic mitochondria, we identified two elongation factors – eEF1A1 and TUFM – that were upregulated in synaptic mitochondria. We found that mitochondrial replication is impaired upon the downregulation of eEF1A1, and this is particularly relevant in the periphery of neurons. |
