TL;DR

It is hypothesize that the presence of Mmp37p enhances the early stages of the TIM23 matrix import pathway to ensure engagement of incoming preproteins with the mtHsp70p/PAM complex, a step that is necessary to drive the unfolding and complete translocation of the preprotein into the matrix.

Structural basis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mba1 in mitochondrial co-translational membrane insertion.

The solution structure of mature Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mba1 is determined using multidimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and reveals a compact α + β fold with a central hydrophobic cavity and distinct charged surface regions, providing a structural framework for interpreting previous functional...

FAM136A is an essential chaperone for mitochondrial membrane protein biogenesis

It is concluded that FAM136A is an IMS-resident chaperone, necessary and sufficient to maintain nascent membrane proteins in a folding-competent state to mediate their integration into the bilayer.

A p32 family RNA editing factor acts in mitochondrial ribosome biogenesis

These findings redefine trypanosomal p22 as a dual-function coordinator of mitochondrial gene expression and reveal that the ancestral role of the p32 family is associated with mitochondrial translation.

Djp1 is a multifunctional Hsp40 cochaperone for mitochondrial phospholipid metabolism

It is demonstrated that Djp1 is a regulator of Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase 1 (Psd1), an inner mitochondrial membrane resident responsible for mitochondrial phosphatidylethanolamine production, and the combined loss of Djp1 and Psd1 results in a synthetic sick phenotype that unexpectedly reflects a role(s) for Djp1...
