- The authors identify a protein MYO6 which triggers the formation of F-actin cages to form around damaged mitochondria (mitochondria were damaged using a variety of pharmacological means)
- These cages form a physical barrier, preventing damaged mitochondria from refusing with the network
- MYO6 interacts with other proteins known to recruit autophagosomes to damaged mitochondria
