Figure Lengend Snippet: Gene-silencing Reticulon 4 or ERLIN2 inhibits mtDNA replication in primary human fibroblasts. Cells were transfected with and without silencer RNA Tm targeting RTN4 or ERLIN2 (Thermo Fisher). Isolated protein from fibroblasts was immunoblotted for Reticulon 4 ( A ) or ERLIN2 ( D ) after fractionation by sodium dodecyl sulphate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) and quantified relative to stained total protein (No-stain™) ( n = 3–4 independent experiments). Representative images of cells treated without and with silencer RNAs targeting RTN4 ( B ) or ERLIN2 ( E ) pulse-labelled with bromo-deoxyuridine (BrdU) for 8 h and stained with the anti-BrdU antibody (green), and anti-TOMM20 antibody (red), the latter to highlight the mitochondrial network. Scale bar = 30 µm. Quantification of the cytoplasmic BrdU foci (C, F). Data represent the pooled results of three independent experiments (Figs and , and ). Data in panel (C) are derived from an analysis of 316 non-target transfected cells (NT) versus 247 RTN4 silenced cells ( n = 10 independent experiments, P < .001). Data in panel ( F ) are derived from an analysis of 308 NT cells versus 229 ERLIN2 silenced cells ( n = 10 independent experiments, P < .001). ( G ) Interpretation of the relationship between ERMCS and mtDNA replication. The mtDNA forms nucleoprotein complexes, or nucleoids, which are tightly associated with the IMM (inner mitochondrial membrane). MtDNA replicates (detected as BrdU incorporation in newly synthesized DNA—green circles) where the tubular ER (TER) forms connections with the mitochondria that include lipid rafts associated with the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM). Without Reticulon 4 TER cannot form, while the absence ERLIN2 compromises the lipid microdomains; hence, the absence of RTN4 and ERLIN2 inhibit mtDNA synthesis (pink nucleoids containing non-replicating mtDNA).

Figure Lengend Snippet: ERMCS regulate mtDNA replication via manganese. ( A ) Reticulon 4 (RTN4) is a component of tubular ER (TER), which is required to form connections with the mitochondria (ERMCS), and RTN4 abundance is proportional to mtDNA synthesis (Fig. and ). ERLIN2 is a fundamental component of ER lipid rafts, on which ERMCS depend (Fig. ), and so it too supports mtDNA synthesis (Fig. ). Equally, because GRP75 is a bridging component of ERMCS , its repression inhibits mtDNA replication . The abundance of the MCU correlates with that of RTN4 and GRP75 (Fig. ), and MCU inhibition represses mtDNA synthesis (Fig. ). Hence, mtDNA synthesis depends on ERMCS and MCU. Manganese is inferred to be the ER signalling factor that stimulates mtDNA replication, as it restores mtDNA synthesis after silencing of ERMCS factors and is a recognized substrate of MCU (Fig. ). SOD2 silencing also inhibits mtDNA replication and is rescued by manganese (Fig. ), suggesting it relays manganese entering via MCU to the mitochondrial nucleoid, where one proposed role of manganese is: ( B ) to shift the equilibrium slightly from long polycistronic transcripts to shorter RNAs that can serve as primers for DNA replication, based on manganese’s effects on the properties of the mitochondrial RNA polymerase, POLRMT (Fig. ). IMM and OMM: inner and outer mitochondrial membranes, respectively; VDAC: voltage dependent anion channel, aka porin, POLG: mtDNA polymerase γ, LSP: light strand promoter, TER: transcription termination site, OriR: origin of replication.
