Mitochondria import hundreds of proteins into the matrix and the inner membrane (IM). The translocase of the IM of mitochondria (TIM23 complex) sorts these proteins using topogenic signals in their structure and directs them into the matrix or inserts them into the IM. How these signals are deciphered is unknown. Her...
Mitochondrial homeostasis is essential for cellular health. To maintain mitochondrial homeostasis in proliferating cells, mitochondrial inheritance to daughter cells must be tightly coordinated with growth and cell division. In budding yeast, mitochondrial inheritance is ensured by active transport into the growing bud...

Lipid droplets (LDs) are unique organelles, surrounded by a phospholipid monolayer. They are present in most eukaryotic cells including the unicellular model organism S. cerevisiae. LDs store neutral lipids which serve as precursors for amphipathic membrane lipids and as an energy reserve. Loss of LDs in S. cerevisiae...
