Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods for altering mitochondrial ATP production, including fusion proteins comprising IF1 polypeptide-derived sequences and also including binding and functional assays exploiting IF1 interactions with ATP synthase. Also disclosed are methods for screening assays for a compound capable of reducing mitochondrial ATP hydrolysis and/or increasing mitochondrial ATP synthesis, including pharmaceutical compositions identified by such methods. The invention also provides methods for treating diabetes, and in particular, type 2 DM, using an agent identified according to the disclosed methods.

Abstract: The present invention relates to improved diagnostic methods for early detection of a risk for developing type 2 diabetes mellitus in humans, and screening assays for therapeutic agents useful in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, by comparing the levels of one or more indicators of altered mitochondrial function. Indicators of altered mitochondrial function include enzymes such as mitochondrial enzymes and ATP biosynthesis factors. Other indicators of altered mitochondrial function include mitochondrial mass, mitochondrial number and mitochondrial DNA content, cellular responses to elevated intracellular calcium and to apoptogens, and free radical production. Methods of treating, and of stratifying, human patients as such methods relate to disclosed indicators of altered mitchondrial function are also provided.
