Precursor proteins are unfolded and imported into mitochondria by a macromolecular machine that spans two membranes and contains at least nine different proteins. Here we examine import of a model ...
There are several mechanisms involved. The newly reported research has uncovered one mechanism, which they found is controlled by the mitochondrial protein MCJ. The researchers first identified ...
A thermal stability-based proteomic analysis identifies cytoplasmic PEBP1 as a mediator of mitochondrial dysfunction-induced stress response, highlighting its potential role in cellular adaptation ...
Mitochondria organelles came from primordial bacterial endosymbionts and still preserve distinct genes for important functions like making ATP. To speed the emerging therapeutic research into the ...
