Résumé

Dynamin 2 mechanoenzyme is a key regulator of membrane remodeling and gain-of-function mutations in its gene cause centronuclear myopathies. Here, we investigate the functions of dynamin 2 isoforms and their associated phenotypes and, specifically, the ubiquitous and muscle-specific dynamin 2 isoforms expressed in skeletal muscle. In cell-based assays, we show that a centronuclear myopathy-related mutation in the ubiquitous but not the muscle-specific dynamin 2 isoform causes increased membrane fission. In vivo, overexpressing the ubiquitous dynamin 2 isoform correlates with severe forms of centronuclear myopathy, while overexpressing the muscle-specific isoform leads to hallmarks seen in milder cases of the disease. Previous mouse studies suggested that reduction of the total dynamin 2 pool could be therapeutic for centronuclear myopathies. Here, dynamin 2 splice switching from muscle-specific to ubiquitous dynamin 2 aggravated the phenotype of a severe X-linked form of centronuclear myopathy caused by loss-of-function of the MTM1 phosphatase, supporting the importance of targeting the ubiquitous isoform for efficient therapy in muscle. Our results highlight that the ubiquitous and not the muscle-specific dynamin 2 isoform is the main modifier contributing to centronuclear myopathy pathology.
