Altered succinylation of mitochondrial proteins, APP and tau in Alzheimer's disease. [PDF]
Abnormalities in brain glucose metabolism and accumulation of abnormal protein deposits called plaques and tangles are neuropathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but their relationship to disease pathogenesis and to each other remains ...

Biogenesis of mitochondrial proteins [PDF]
Numerous components have been identified that participate at various stages in the biogenesis of mitochondria. For many of these components, their specific functions have recently been defined through detailed investigations of the molecular mechanisms underlying protein targeting, translocation across the mitochondrial outer and inner membranes ...

Import of mitochondrial proteins [PDF]
Publisher Summary This chapter describes the structural organization and function of the import systems that mediate protein targeting to mitochondria, and how genetic alterations of these systems contribute to the development of neurodegenerative disorders in humans.

Alterations of the mitochondrial proteome caused by the absence of mitochondrial DNA: A proteomic view [PDF]
The proper functioning of mitochondria requires that both the mitochondrial and the nuclear genome are functional. To investigate the importance of the mitochondrial genome, which encodes only 13 subunits of the respiratory complexes, the mitochondrial rRNAs and a few tRNAs, we performed a comparative study on the 143B cell line and on its Rho-0 ...

Cytosolic aggregation of mitochondrial proteins disrupts cellular homeostasis by stimulating the aggregation of other proteins. [PDF]
Mitochondria are organelles with their own genomes, but they rely on the import of nuclear-encoded proteins that are translated by cytosolic ribosomes. Therefore, it is important to understand whether failures in the mitochondrial uptake of these nuclear-

Interactions among mitochondrial proteins altered in glioblastoma [PDF]
Mitochondrial dysfunction is putatively central to glioblastoma (GBM) pathophysiology but there has been no systematic analysis in GBM of the proteins which are integral to mitochondrial function.
