Nearly all mitochondrial proteins need to be targeted for import from the cytosol. For the majority, the first port of call is the translocase of the outer membrane (TOM complex), followed by a procession of alternative molecular machines, conducting ...

Three ways in, one way out: Water dynamics in the trans‐membrane domains of the inner membrane translocase AcrB [PDF]
AbstractPowered by proton‐motive force, the inner membrane translocase AcrB is the engine of the AcrAB‐TolC efflux pump in Escherichia coli. As proton conduction in proteins occurs along hydrogen‐bonded networks of polar residues and water molecules, knowledge of the protein‐internal water distribution and water‐interacting residues allows drawing ...

A TatABC-type Tat translocase is required for unimpaired aerobic growth of Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC13032. [PDF]
The twin-arginine translocation (Tat) system transports folded proteins across the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria and the thylakoid membrane of plant chloroplasts.

Protein Quality Control at the Mitochondrial Surface
Mitochondria contain two membranes, the outer and inner membrane. The outer membrane fulfills crucial functions for the communication of mitochondria with the cellular environment like exchange of lipids via organelle contact sites, the transport of ...

Protein trafficking in the mitochondrial intermembrane space: mechanisms and links to human disease [PDF]
Mitochondria fulfill a diverse range of functions in cells including oxygen metabolism, homeostasis of inorganic ions and execution of apoptosis. Biogenesis of mitochondria relies on protein import pathways that are ensured by dedicated multiprotein ...

Background Translocase of inner membrane 50 (TIM50) is a member of the translocase of inner membrane (TIM) complex in the mitochondria. Previous research has demonstrated the role of TIM50 in the regulation of oxidative stress and cardiac morphology ...

Oxidative protein biogenesis and redox regulation in the mitochondrial intermembrane space [PDF]
Mitochondria are organelles that play a central role in cellular metabolism, as they are responsible for processes such as iron/sulfur cluster biogenesis, respiration and apoptosis.

Dual Function of Sdh3 in the Respiratory Chain and TIM22 Protein Translocase of the Mitochondrial Inner Membrane [PDF]
The mitochondrial inner membrane harbors the complexes of the respiratory chain and translocase complexes for precursor proteins. We have identified a further subunit of the carrier translocase (TIM22 complex) that surprisingly is identical to subunit 3 of respiratory complex II, succinate dehydrogenase (Sdh3).
