Abstract

A change in the shape of mitochondrial cristae must take place to attain rapid and complete release of cytochrome c during apoptosis. In this issue of Cell, Cipolat et al. and Frezza et al. (2006) show that a rhomboid intramembrane protease PARL and a dynamin-related protein OPA1 are critical regulators of cristae remodeling.
