Preparation of physiologically active inside-out vesicles from plant inner mitochondrial membranes
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 For many metabolites, the major barrier between cytosol and mitochondrial matrix is the inner membrane of mitochondria, the site of the respiratory electron transport chain.

Reconstitutions of mitochondrial inner membrane remodeling
Journal of Structural Biology, 2016 Biological membranes exhibit function-related shapes, leading to a plethora of complex and beautiful cell and cell organellar morphologies. Most if not all of these structures have evolved for a particular physiological reason. The shapes of these structures are formed by physical forces that operate on membranes.

Dynamic subcompartmentalization of the mitochondrial inner membrane [PDF]
The Journal of Cell Biology, 2006 The inner membrane of mitochondria is organized in two morphologically distinct domains, the inner boundary membrane (IBM) and the cristae membrane (CM), which are connected by narrow, tubular cristae junctions. The protein composition of these domains, their dynamics, and their biogenesis and maintenance are poorly understood at the molecular level ...

ZapE/Afg1 interacts with Oxa1 and its depletion causes a multifaceted phenotype.
PLoS ONE, 2020 ZapE/Afg1 is a component of the inner cell membrane of some eubacteria and the inner mitochondrial membrane of eukaryotes. This protein is involved in FtsZ-dependent division of eubacteria. In the yeast and human mitochondrion, ZapE/Afg1 likely interacts

Translocation and insertion of precursor proteins into isolated outer membranes of mitochondria [PDF]
, 1993 Nuclear-encoded proteins destined for mitochondria must cross the outer or both outer and inner membranes to reach their final sub- mitochondrial locations. While the inner membrane can translocate preproteins by itself, it is not known whether the outer

Protein crowding in the inner mitochondrial membrane
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2021 The inner membrane of mitochondria is known for its low lipid-to-protein ratio. Calculations based on the size and the concentration of the principal membrane components, suggest about half of the hydrophobic volume of the membrane is occupied by proteins.

Truncation of the Mrp20 Protein Reveals New Ribosome‐assembly Subcomplex in Mitochondria [PDF]
, 2011 Mitochondrial ribosomal protein 20 (Mrp20) is a component of the yeast mitochondrial large (54S) ribosomal subunit and is homologous to the bacterial L23 protein, located at the ribosomal tunnel exit site.

Characterization of Translocation Contact Sites Involved in the Import of Mitochondrial Proteins [PDF]
, 1987 Import of proteins into the mitochondrial matrix requires translocation across two membranes. Translocational intermediates of mitochondrial proteins, which span the outer and inner membrane simultaneously and thus suggest that translocation occurs in ...

Modeling tubular shapes in the inner mitochondrial membrane [PDF]
Physical Biology, 2005 The inner mitochondrial membrane has been shown to have a novel structure that contains tubular components whose radii are on the order of 10 nm as well as comparatively flat regions. The structural organization of mitochondria is important to understanding their functionality.
