Protein translocons in photosynthetic organelles of Paulinella chromatophora
The rhizarian amoeba Paulinella chromatophora harbors two photosynthetic cyanobacterial endosymbionts (chromatophores), acquired independently of primary plastids of glaucophytes, red algae and green plants.

Compromised Mitochondrial Protein Import Acts as a Signal for UPRmt.
The induction of the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) results in increased transcription of the gene encoding the mitochondrial chaperone HSP70. We systematically screened the C.

A mitochondrial import receptor for the ADP/ATP carrier [PDF]
We have identified a mitochondrial outer membrane protein of 72 kd (MOM72) that exhibits the properties of an import receptor for the ADP/ATP carrier (AAC), the most abundant mitochondrial protein.

Protein import into plant mitochondria [PDF]
The presence of plastids in plant cells requires a higher level of precursor recognition by the mitochondrial protein import apparatus than in nonplant organisms. Although the plant presequences display the overall features observed in yeast and mammals, they are generally longer and more hydrophilic.

Characterisation of components and mechanisms involved in redox-regulation of protein import into chloroplasts [PDF]
The vast majority of chloroplast proteins is encoded in the nucleus and thus has to be posttranslationally imported into the organelle, a process that is facilitated by two multimeric protein machineries, the Toc and Tic complexes (translocon at the ...

Phosphorylation of the transit peptides of nuclear-encoded preprotein is a well-known regulatory process of protein import in plant chloroplasts. In the Arabidopsis Protein Phosphorylation Site Database, 103 out of 802 mitochondrial proteins were found ...

The peroxisomal protein import machinery displays a preference for monomeric substrates [PDF]
Peroxisomal matrix proteins are synthesized on cytosolic ribosomes and transported by the shuttling receptor PEX5 to the peroxisomal membrane docking/translocation machinery, where they are translocated into the organelle matrix.

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

MitoCPR - a surveillance pathway that protects mitochondria in response to protein import stress
The mitoCPR unclogs mitochondria The import of proteins into mitochondria is essential for cell viability. How cells respond when mitochondrial protein import is impaired is poorly understood.

Protein translocation across mitochondrial membranes [PDF]
Protein translocation across biological membranes is of fundamental importance for the biogenesis of organelles and in protein secretion. We will give an overview of the recent achievements in the understanding of protein translocation across ...
