Reducing mitochondrial fission results in increased life span and fitness of two fungal ageing models
Ageing of biological systems is accompanied by alterations in mitochondrial morphology, including a transformation from networks and filaments to punctuate units. The significance of these… Expand

Copper homeostasis and aging in the fungal model system Podospora anserina: differential expression of PaCtr3 encoding a copper transporter.
Lifespan extension of Podospora anserina mutant grisea is caused by a loss-of-function mutation in the nuclear gene Grisea. This gene encodes the copper regulated transcription factor GRISEA recently… Expand

Modulation of the glyoxalase system in the aging model Podospora anserina: effects on growth and lifespan
The eukaryotic glyoxalase system consists of two enzymatic components, glyoxalase I (lactoylglutathione lyase) and glyoxalase II (hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase). These enzymes are dedicated to the… Expand

Supramolecular Organization of Cytochrome c Oxidase- and Alternative Oxidase-dependent Respiratory Chains in the Filamentous Fungus Podospora anserina*
To elucidate the molecular basis of the link between respiration and longevity, we have studied the organization of the respiratory chain of a wild-type strain and of two long-lived mutants of the… Expand

OXPHOS Supercomplexes
Abstract:  Recent biochemical evidence has indicated the existence of respiratory supercomplexes as well as ATP synthase oligomers in the inner mitochondrial membrane of different eukaryotes. We have… Expand

Unopposed mitochondrial fission leads to severe lifespan shortening
Mitochondrial morphology is controlled by the opposing processes of fusion and fission. Previously, in baker’s yeast it was shown that reduced mitochondrial fission leads to a network-like… Expand

Carotenoids and carotenogenic genes in Podospora anserina: engineering of the carotenoid composition extends the life span of the mycelium
Carotenoids have been identified in the fungus Podospora anserina and a parallel pathway to neurosporene and β-carotene was established. Three genes for the β-carotene branch have been cloned and… Expand

Podospora anserina: a model organism to study mechanisms of healthy ageing
The filamentous ascomycete Podospora anserina has been extensively studied as an experimental ageing model for more than 50 years. As a result, a huge body of data has been accumulated and various… Expand

Synthetic quantitative array technology identifies the Ubp3-Bre5 deubiquitinase complex as a negative regulator of mitophagy.
Mitophagy is crucial to ensuring mitochondrial quality control. However, the molecular mechanism and regulation of mitophagy are still not fully understood. Here, we developed a quantitative… Expand

Respiration, copper availability and SOD activity in P. anserina strains with different lifespan
P. anserina mutants with impairments in complex IV (COX) of the respiratory chain are characterized by an increase in lifespan. Examples are the nuclear grisea mutant with a moderate lifespan… Expand
