Legionella pneumophila secretes a mitochondrial carrier protein during infection.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2012
The Mitochondrial Carrier Family (MCF) is a signature group of integral membrane proteins that transport metabolites across the mitochondrial inner membrane in eukaryotes. MCF proteins are characterized by six transmembrane segments that assemble to form

Transport of Cytoplasmically Synthesized Proteins into the Mitochondria in a Cell Free System from Neurospora crassa [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Synthesis and transport of mitochondrial proteins were followed in a cell-free homogenate of Neurospora crassa in which mitochondrial translation was inhibited. Proteins synthesized on cytoplasmic ribosomes are transferred into the mitochondrial fraction.

Biogenesis of mitochondrial porin [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
We review here the present knowledge about the pathway of import and assembly of porin into mitochondria and compare it to those of other mitochondrial proteins.

Aster-B coordinates with Arf1 to regulate mitochondrial cholesterol transport

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2020
Objective: Cholesterol plays a pivotal role in mitochondrial steroidogenesis, membrane structure, and respiration. Mitochondrial membranes are intrinsically low in cholesterol content and therefore must be replenished with cholesterol from other ...

Transport of proteins into mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Translocational intermediates of precursor proteins of ATPase F1β subunit and cytochrome c1 across mitochondrial membranes were analyzed using two different approaches, transport at low temperature and transport after binding of precursor proteins to ...

Transport of proteins across or into the mitochondrial outer membrane

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2010
Mitochondria are surrounded by two biological membranes. The outer mitochondrial membrane contains two major translocators, the TOM40 (TOM) and TOB/SAM complexes for protein translocation across and/or insertion into the outer membrane. The TOM40 complex functions as an entry gate for most mitochondrial proteins, and the TOB/SAM complex as a ...

The SPFH Protein Superfamily in Fungi: Impact on Mitochondrial Function and Implications in Virulence

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Integral membrane proteins from the ancient SPFH (stomatin, prohibitin, flotillin, HflK/HflC) protein superfamily are found in nearly all living organisms.

Translocation and insertion of precursor proteins into isolated outer membranes of mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 transport machineries for precursor translocation across the inner mitochondrial membrane

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2009
The mitochondrial inner membrane has a central function for the energy metabolism of the cell. The respiratory chain generates a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane, which is used to produce ATP by the F1Fo-ATPase. To maintain the electrochemical gradient, the inner membrane represents an efficient permeability barrier for small ...

Niemann-Pick Type C2 protein contributes to the transport of endosomal cholesterol to mitochondria without interacting with NPC1[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2012
Mitochondrial cholesterol is maintained within a narrow range to regulate steroid and oxysterol synthesis and to ensure mitochondrial function. Mitochondria acquire cholesterol through several pathways from different cellular pools.
