Cyclic AMP Receptor Protein from Yeast Mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
We have identified and characterized a cyclic AMP receptor protein in mitochondria of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The binding is specific for cyclic nucleotides, particularly for cyclic AMP which is bound with high affinity (Kd of 10(-9) M) at 1 ...

Metalloproteases of the Inner Mitochondrial Membrane [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemistry, 2017
The inner mitochondrial membrane (IM) is among the most protein-rich cellular compartments. The metastable IM subproteome where the concentration of proteins is approaching oversaturation creates a challenging protein folding environment with a high probability of protein malfunction or aggregation.

The mitochondrial receptor complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The receptor complex in the mitochondrial outer membrane, which consists of at least seven different proteins, is responsible for the recognition and translocation of cytosolically synthesized preproteins.

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Mitochondrial Machineries for Protein Import and Assembly.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biochemistry, 2017
Mitochondria are essential organelles with numerous functions in cellular metabolism and homeostasis. Most of the >1,000 different mitochondrial proteins are synthesized as precursors in the cytosol and are imported into mitochondria by five transport ...

Mitochondrial inner membrane in hypothyroidism [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1976
Abstract Inner membrane vesicles obtained from the liver mitochondria of hypothyroid and normal rats were compared. In the vesicles from hypothyroid rats the rate of ATP synthesis at 30 °C is 35–50% less than the normal rate. The Arrhenius profile for phosphorylation by such vesicles lacks the discontinuity at 21 °C that is seen with vesicles from ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Translocation arrest by reversible folding of a precursor protein imported into mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Passage of precursor proteins through translocation contact sites of mitochondria was investigated by studying the import of a fusion protein consisting of the NH2-terminal 167 amino acids of yeast cytochrome b2 precursor and the complete mouse ...

The relevance of mitochondrial membrane topology to mitochondrial function

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2006
This review summarizes recent findings from electron tomography about the three-dimensional shape of mitochondrial membranes and its possible influence on a range of mitochondrial functions. The inner membrane invaginations called cristae are pleomorphic, typically connected by narrow tubular junctions of variable length to the inner boundary membrane.

Emergence of the mitochondrial reticulum from fission and fusion dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Mitochondria form a dynamic tubular reticulum within eukaryotic cells. Currently, quantitative understanding of its morphological characteristics is largely absent, despite major progress in deciphering the molecular fission and fusion machineries ...
