CHCHD2 Thr61Ile mutation impairs F1F0-ATPase assembly in in vitro and in vivo models of Parkinson's disease.

ABSTRACT: Mitochondrial dysfunction is a significant pathological alteration that occurs in Parkinson's disease (PD), and the Thr61Ile (T61I) mutation in coiled-coil helix coiled-coil helix domain containing 2 (CHCHD2), a crucial mitochondrial protein, has been reported to cause Parkinson's disease. F1F0-ATPase participates in the synthesis of cellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and plays a central role in mitochondrial energy metabolism. However, the specific roles of wild-type (WT) CHCHD2 and T61I-mutant CHCHD2 in regulating F1F0-ATPase activity in Parkinson's disease, as well as whether CHCHD2 or CHCHD2 T61I affects mitochondrial function through regulating F1F0-ATPase activity, remain unclear. Therefore, in this study, we expressed WT CHCHD2 and T61I-mutant CHCHD2 in an MPP⁺-induced
