Funded Activity Summary

Metabolite regulation of mitochondrial fission. This project aims to understand how the function and health of mitochondria – the energy producing structures in cells - are controlled by fat molecules. The project expects to integrate cutting edge techniques and instrumentation to generate new knowledge of how fat molecules interact with, and influence, enzymes that control how cells maintain their mitochondria in response to nutrient state. An anticipated goal is to define a fingerprint for enzymes regulated by fat molecules that will be of great interest to researchers across many branches of life sciences. Expected outcomes and benefits will be deeper understanding of fat molecules as nutrient signalling metabolites, and how they influence cell metabolism, growth and development.
