title: Activation and degradation of mitofusins: two pathways regulate mitochondrial fusion by reversible ubiquitylation.
abstract: Mitofusins are large GTPases essential for mitochondrial fusion. In this issue, Anton et al. (2013) report that two independent pathways of ubiquitylation/deubiquitylation control activation and degradation of mitofusins, revealing a sophisticated mechanism of regulating mitochondrial dynamics.
