Transit Peptides Often Require Downstream Unstructured Sequence for Efficient Chloroplast Import in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The N-terminal sequence stretch that defines subcellular targeting for most nuclear encoded chloroplast proteins is usually considered identical to the sequence that is cleaved upon import.

Protein import into chloroplasts: new aspects of a well-known topic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Protein import into plant chloroplasts is a fascinating topic that is being investigated by many research groups. Since the majority of chloroplast proteins are synthesised as precursor proteins in the cytosol, they have to be posttranslationally ...

Import of proteins into peroxisomes

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 1999
Peroxisomes are organelles that confine an important set of enzymes within their single membrane boundaries. In man, a wide variety of genetic disorders is caused by loss of peroxisome function. In the most severe cases, the clinical phenotype indicates that abnormalities begin to appear during embryological development.

Tim17 Updates: A Comprehensive Review of an Ancient Mitochondrial Protein Translocator

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
The translocases of the mitochondrial outer and inner membranes, the TOM and TIMs, import hundreds of nucleus-encoded proteins into mitochondria. TOM and TIMs are multi-subunit protein complexes that work in cooperation with other complexes to import ...

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 ...

MOM19, an import receptor for mitochondrial precursor proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
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 ...

High Light Acclimation Induces Chloroplast Precursor Phosphorylation and Reduces Import Efficiency

open access: yesPlants, 2019
Acclimation is an essential process in plants on many levels, but especially in chloroplasts under changing light conditions. It is partially known how the photosynthetic machinery reacts upon exposure to high light intensities, including rearrangement ...

Protein folding causes an arrest of preprotein translocation into mitochondria in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
With vital yeast cells, a hybrid protein consisting of the amino- terminal third of the precursor to cytochrome b2 and of the entire dihydrofolate reductase was arrested on the import pathway into mitochondria.
