Mitochondrial protein import [PDF]
Most polypeptides of mitochondria are imported from the cytosol. Precursor proteins contain targeting and sorting information, often in the form of amino-terminal presequences. Precursors first bind to receptors in the outer membrane. Two putative import receptors have been identified: a 19-kilodalton protein (MOM19) in Neurospora mitochondria, and a ...

A homology search using the SECI sequence (1) revealed a significant homology at the protein level with two other yeast genes, SLYI and SLPI (2). These three proteins are involved in protein secretion and intracellular transport in yeast, each at a ...

Increased mitochondrial protein import and cardiolipin remodelling upon early mtUPR.
Mitochondrial defects can cause a variety of human diseases and protective mechanisms exist to maintain mitochondrial functionality. Imbalances in mitochondrial proteostasis trigger a transcriptional program, termed mitochondrial unfolded protein ...

DELE1 tracks perturbed protein import and processing in human mitochondria
Protein homeostatic control of mitochondria is key to age-related diseases and organismal decline. However, it is unknown how the diverse types of stress experienced by mitochondria can be integrated and appropriately responded to in human cells. Here we

Types of nuclear localization signals and mechanisms of protein import into the nucleus
Nuclear localization signals (NLS) are generally short peptides that act as a signal fragment that mediates the transport of proteins from the cytoplasm into the nucleus.

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.

Effect of VIRP1 Protein on Nuclear Import of Citrus Exocortis Viroid (CEVd)
Before replicating, Pospiviroidae viroids must move into the plant nucleus. However, the mechanisms of viroid nuclear import are not entirely understood.
