A structural model of the active ribosome-bound membrane protein insertase YidC

open access: yeseLife, 2014
The integration of most membrane proteins into the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria occurs co-translationally. The universally conserved YidC protein mediates this process either individually as a membrane protein insertase, or in concert with the SecY ...

Membrane protein insertion and assembly by the bacterial holo-translocon SecYEG-SecDF-YajC-YidC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Protein secretion and membrane insertion occur through the ubiquitous Sec machinery. In this system, insertion involves the targeting of translating ribosomes via the signal recognition particle and its cognate receptor to the SecY (bacteria and archaea)/

Structural Requirements of a Glycolipid MPIase for Membrane Protein Integration

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 29, Issue 30, May 26, 2023., 2023
MPIase, a glycolipid, is involved in membrane protein integration in the inner membrane of Escherichia coli. In this study, we synthesized analogs to reveal the structural requirements and glycan‐length dependency for the integration and chaperone‐like activity, and synergistic effects with the membrane chaperone, YidC.

Role of YidC in folding of polytopic membrane proteins [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2004
YidC of Echerichia coli, a member of the conserved Alb3/Oxa1/YidC family, is postulated to be important for biogenesis of membrane proteins. Here, we use as a model the lactose permease (LacY), a membrane transport protein with a known three-dimensional structure, to determine whether YidC plays a role in polytopic membrane protein insertion and/or ...

Unbalanced Charge Distribution as a Determinant for Dependence of a Subset of Escherichia coli Membrane Proteins on the Membrane Insertase YidC

open access: yesmBio, 2011
Membrane proteins are involved in numerous essential cell processes, including transport, gene regulation, motility, and metabolism. To function properly, they must be inserted into the membrane and folded correctly.

The Cytoplasmic Domains of Streptococcus mutans Membrane Protein Insertases YidC1 and YidC2 Confer Unique Structural and Functional Attributes to Each Paralog

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Integral and membrane-anchored proteins are pivotal to survival and virulence of the dental pathogen, Streptococcus mutans. The bacterial chaperone/insertase, YidC, contributes to membrane protein translocation.

The integration of YidC into the cytoplasmic membrane of Escherichia coli requires the signal recognition particle, SecA and SecYEG [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The integration of the polytopic membrane protein YidC into the inner membrane of Escherichia coli was analyzed employing an in vitro system. Upon integration of in vitro synthesized YidC, a 42-kDa membrane protected fragment was detected, which could be

The Mba1 homologue of Trypanosoma brucei is involved in the biogenesis of oxidative phosphorylation complexes

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 119, Issue 5, Page 537-550, May 2023., 2023
The trypanosomal orthologue of the mitoribosome receptor Mba1 (TbMba1) is essential for normal growth of procyclic trypanosomes. Proteomic analyses of TbMba1‐depleted mitochondria revealed reduced levels of many components of the cytochrome c oxidase (Cox) complex, three subunits of which are mitochondrially encoded.

The ER membrane complex (EMC) can functionally replace the Oxa1 insertase in mitochondria

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2022
Two multisubunit protein complexes for membrane protein insertion were recently identified in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER): the guided entry of tail anchor proteins (GET) complex and ER membrane complex (EMC).

Flavour physics without flavour symmetries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We quantitatively analyze a quark-lepton flavour model derived from a six-dimensional supersymmetric theory with $SO(10)\times U(1)$ gauge symmetry, compactified on an orbifold with magnetic flux.
