Mitochondrial Protein Biogenesis in the Synapse is Supported by Local Translation

Mitochondrial Protein Biogenesis in the Synapse is Supported by Local Translation

Biolog invites you to a special webinar featuring our guest speaker:

Dr. Magdalena Dziembowska
Laboratory of Molecular Basis of Synaptic Plasticity
Centre of New Technologies, University of Warsaw

Webinar Topics Include

  • Newly synthesized proteins are imported into the mitochondria and incorporated into the respiratory chain complexes
  • Uncoupling of mitochondria and blocking mitochondrial import inhibits incorporation of de novo synthesized proteins
  • If synaptic translation is dysregulated, the physiology of mitochondria is altered
