Transport of proteins across or into the mitochondrial outer membrane

open access: yesBiochimica Et Biophysica Acta - 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 yeast mitochondrial carrier proteins Mrs3p/Mrs4p mediate iron transport across the inner mitochondrial membrane

open access: yesBiochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Biomembranes, 2009
The yeast proteins Mrs3p and Mrs4p are two closely related members of the mitochondrial carrier family (MCF), which had previously been implicated in mitochondrial Fe(2+) homeostasis. A vertebrate Mrs3/4 homologue named mitoferrin was shown to be essential for erythroid iron utilization and proposed to function as an essential mitochondrial iron ...

Preprotein Transport Machineries of Yeast Mitochondrial Outer Membrane Are not Required for Bax-induced Release of Intermembrane Space Proteins

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2007
The mitochondrial outer membrane contains protein import machineries, the translocase of the outer membrane (TOM) and the sorting and assembly machinery (SAM). It has been speculated that TOM or SAM are required for Bax-induced release of intermembrane space (IMS) proteins; however, experimental evidence has been scarce.

Mitochondrial phosphate transport and the N-ethylmaleimide binding proteins of the inner membrane

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 1978
Mitochondria have been prepared from the flight muscles of mature blow-flies (Sarcophaga bullata). Phosphate transport by these mitochondria, determined by rates of passive swelling in ammonium phosphate, is sensitive to inhibition by N-ethylmaleimide. 20 nmol of N-ethylmaleimide/nmol cytochrome A inhibit the swelling by 90%.

“BASOLATERAL” AND MITOCHONDRIAL MEMBRANE TRANSPORT DEFECT IN THE HEPATOCYTES IN LYSINURIC PROTEIN INTOLERANCE

Acta Paediatrica, 1983
ABSTRACT. In lysinuric protein intolerance, diamino acid transport is defective at the basolateral membrane of the jejunal and renotubular epithelia. The plasma has depressed concentrations of ornithine and arginine but, in contrast, supranormal levels of another urea cycle intermediate, citrulline.

Defects of Mitochondrial Membrane-Bound Transport Proteins in Human Mitochondriopathies: A Biochemical Approach

1995
In part of the patients with a disturbance in the mitochondrial energy metabolism, the defect can not be ascribed to a default in the respiratory chain, citric acid cycle or pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. Incubations of muscle mitochondria with various substrates under different conditions render it likely that defects in transport systems in the ...

Proteostasis at the mitochondrial outer membrane: Quality control of mitochondrial protein transport

Protein Science
Abstract Mitochondria are enclosed by a double‐membrane structure composed of the outer and inner membranes, and this architectural organization underlies their diverse cellular functions. In particular, the mitochondrial outer membrane serves as an essential interface between the cytosol and the mitochondrial interior, regulating the

Consequences of Defective Vitamin A Transportation on Mitochondrial Membrane Integrity during Protein Depletion

Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism, 1986
The relationships between the structural integrity and functionality of rat liver mitochondrial membranes, and different levels of dietary protein and vitamin A transportation during protein depletion in animals have been investigated. Although the vitamin A content of the protein-depleted diet was 1680 +/- 35 IU/kg diet, and that of the control diet ...
