Biogenesis of mitochondrial β‐barrel membrane proteins [PDF]
β‐barrel membrane proteins in the mitochondrial outer membrane are crucial for mediating the metabolite exchange between the cytosol and the mitochondrial intermembrane space. In addition, the β‐barrel membrane protein subunit Tom40 of the translocase of

Diverse Functions of Tim50, a Component of the Mitochondrial Inner Membrane Protein Translocase [PDF]
Mitochondria are essential in eukaryotes. Besides producing 80% of total cellular ATP, mitochondria are involved in various cellular functions such as apoptosis, inflammation, innate immunity, stress tolerance, and Ca2+ homeostasis. Mitochondria are also the site for many critical metabolic pathways and are integrated into the signaling network to ...

Functions of J-domain proteins in mitochondrial protein biogenesis. [PDF]
Abstract Mitochondrial biogenesis and functions depend on the import and assembly of more than 1000 proteins that are made as precursors on cytosolic ribosomes. The majority of these precursor proteins are transported from the ribosome to the translocase of the outer membrane (TOM complex), which constitutes the main entry site for mitochondrial ...

Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.

Dimeric SecA couples the preprotein translocation in an asymmetric manner. [PDF]
The Sec translocase mediates the post-translational translocation of a number of preproteins through the inner membrane in bacteria. In the initiatory translocation step, SecB targets the preprotein to the translocase by specific interaction with its ...

Adaptive mitochondrial mechanisms allow mitochondrial resilience and prevent the worsening of fibrosis, while deregulation of these mechanisms promotes the progression from no/minimal‐mild (F0‐F2) fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis (F3‐F4). Abstract Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes oxidative stress (OS) and alters ...

Biogenesis of Mitochondrial Metabolite Carriers
Metabolite carriers of the mitochondrial inner membrane are crucial for cellular physiology since mitochondria contribute essential metabolic reactions and synthesize the majority of the cellular ATP. Like almost all mitochondrial proteins, carriers have

A subset of bacterial inner membrane proteins integrated by the twin‐arginine translocase [PDF]
Summary A group of bacterial exported proteins are synthesized with N‐terminal signal peptides containing a SRRxFLK ‘twin‐arginine’ amino acid motif. Proteins bearing twin‐arginine signal peptides are targeted post‐translationally to the twin‐arginine translocation (Tat) system which transports folded substrates ...

Prognostic value of TIMM50 expression in colorectal cancer
Introduction Translocase of the inner mitochondrial membrane 50 (TIMM50) is universally considered to play a key role in several malignancies. However, its role in predicting colorectal cancer (CRC) patient prognosis remains unclear.
