Adenoviral expression of the BAP31 cleavage product, p20 causes early release of Ca2+ from the ER, concomitant uptake of Ca2+ into mitochondria, and recruitment of Drp1 to the mitochondria (Breckenridge et al., 2003). Drp1 mediates scission of the outer mitochondrial membrane, resulting in dramatic fragmentation and fission of the mitochondrial network.
