Mitochondrial permeability transition is a phenomenon in which the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (PTP) abruptly opens resulting in mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) dissipation, loss of ATP production, and cell death. Several genetic candidates have been proposed to form the PTP complex however the core component is unknown. We identified a necessary and conserved role for spastic paraplegia 7 (SPG7) in Ca2+ and ROS-induced PTP opening using RNAi based screening. Loss of SPG7 resulted in higher mitochondrial Ca2+, similar to cyclophilin D (CypD, PPIF) knockdown with sustained ΔΨm during both Ca2+ and ROS stress. Biochemical analyses revealed that the PTP is a hetero-oligomeric complex composed of VDAC, SPG7 and CypD. Silencing or disruption of SPG7-CypD binding prevented Ca2+ and ROS-induced ΔΨm depolarization and cell death. This study identifies a ubiquitously expressed IMM integral protein, SPG7, as a core component of the PTP at the OMM and IMM contact site.
