He mitochondrial ATP6 gene that are pathogenic in humans [3,4]. We demonstrate that all genetic OXPHOS defects are associated to an inhibition of inner but not outer membrane fusion. Fusion inhibition is dominant, and hampers the fusion of mutant mitochondria with wild-type mitochondria. We further show that the inhibition induced by point mutations associated to …
