Abstract
⺠Mitochondrial Ca2 + activates Krebs cycle enzymes to adapt energy supply to demand. ⺠Close association of mitochondria to SR establishes a Ca2 + microdomain. ⺠Mitofusin 2, but not mitofusin 1 tethers mitochondria to the SR in cardiac myocytes. ⺠Impaired mitochondrial Ca2 + uptake causes energetic mismatch and oxidative stress.
