RNAi-based gene silencing in primary mouse and human adipose tissues
Cultured adipocyte cell lines are a model system widely used to study adipose function, but they exhibit significant physiological differences compared with primary cells from adipose tissue.

Tom70-based transcriptional regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis and aging
Mitochondrial biogenesis has two major steps: the transcriptional activation of nuclear genome-encoded mitochondrial proteins and the import of nascent mitochondrial proteins that are synthesized in the cytosol.

Mitochondrial carrier proteins [PDF]
Ten mitochondrial carriers have been purified from animal mitochondria. They are small proteins with a molecular mass ranging from 28 to 34 kDa on SDS‐PAGE. So far, five of these proteins have been sequenced. Their polypeptide chain consists of three tandemly related sequences of about 100 amino acids.

Mitochondrial nucleoid interacting proteins support mitochondrial protein synthesis [PDF]
Mitochondrial ribosomes and translation factors co-purify with mitochondrial nucleoids of human cells, based on affinity protein purification of tagged mitochondrial DNA binding proteins. Among the most frequently identified proteins were ATAD3 and prohibitin, which have been identified previously as nucleoid components, using a variety of methods ...

MOM19, an import receptor for mitochondrial precursor proteins [PDF]
We have identified a 19 kd protein of the mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM19). Monospecific IgG and Fab fragments directed against MOM19 inhibit import of precursor proteins destined for the various mitochondrial subcompartments, including porin ...

ER targeting of non-imported mitochondrial carrier proteins is dependent on the GET pathway
The GET pathway is required to target non-imported mitochondrial carrier proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum, which prevents their deposition into Hsp42-dependent protein foci.

Hsp70 in mitochondrial biogenesis [PDF]
The family of hsp70 (70 kilodalton heat shock protein) molecular chaperones plays an essential and diverse role in cellular physiology, Hsp70 proteins appear to elicit their effects by interacting with polypeptides that present domains which exhibit non ...

A morphological view on mitochondrial protein targeting [PDF]
Mitochondrial protein targeting includes both intramitochondrial sorting of proteins encoded by the organellar genome and import and subsequent sorting of nuclear encoded precursor proteins. Only a few proteins are encoded by the mitochondrial genome and
