Although the majority of known vacuolar proteins transit through the secretory pathway, two vacuole-resident proteins have been identified that reach this organelle by an alternate pathway. These polypeptides are targeted to the vacuole directly from the cytoplasm by a novel import mechanism. The best characterized protein that uses this pathway is aminopeptidase I (API). API is synthesized as ...
The central channel Tom40 of the preprotein translocase of outer membrane (TOM) complex is thought to be responsible for the import of virtually all preproteins synthesized outside the mitochondria. In this study, we analyze the topogenesis of the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor (PBR), which integrates into the mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM) through five hydrophobic transmembrane segment...
In human cell, a subset of small non-coding RNAs is imported into mitochondria from the cytosol. Analysis of the tRNA import pathway allowing targeting of the yeast tRNA(Lys)(CUU) into human mitochondria demonstrates a similarity between the RNA import mechanisms in yeast and human cells. We show that the cytosolic precursor of human mitochondrial lysyl-tRNA synthetase (preKARS2) interacts with...
The dual signal approach, i.e. a mitochondrial signal at the N-terminus and an ER (endoplasmic reticulum) or a peroxisomal signal at the C-terminus of EGFP (enhanced green fluorescent protein), was employed in transfected HeLa cells to test for a co-translational import model. The signal peptide from OTC (ornithine transcarbamylase) or arginase II was fused to the N-terminus of EGFP, and an ER ...
Thyroid hormone [3,5,3'-triiodo-l-thyronine (T(3))] induces phenotypic alterations in cardiac mitochondria, in part by influencing protein import and the expression of the import motor mitochondrial heat shock protein (mtHsp70). Here we examined the adaptability of translocases of the inner membrane (Tim) proteins, as well as the outer membrane receptor Tom34, to T(3). Administration of T(3) to...
Plastid development involves the programmed accumulation of proteins. Most plastid proteins are synthesized in the cytosol and imported into the organelle by an envelope-based protein import apparatus. Previous studies have shown that developmental rates of protein accumylation correspond to mRNA levels. Here, we examined the relationship between plastid development and the activity of the prot...
Cytoplasmic assembly of Sm-class small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) is a central process in eukaryotic gene expression. A large macromolecular complex containing the survival of motor neurons (SMN) protein is required for proper snRNP assembly in vivo. Defects in SMN function lead to a human neuromuscular disorder, spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). SMN protein localizes to both nuclear and ...
Most mitochondrial proteins are synthesized in the cytosol, translocated into the organelle and directed along specific sorting pathways. Over the past 20 years, >30 proteins have been identified as having key roles in mitochondrial protein import. Recently, the elucidation of the structures of several import components has provided fresh insight into the import process. Here, we review the dif...
In the decade that has elapsed since the discovery of the first peroxisomal targeting signal (PTS), considerable information has been obtained regarding the mechanism of protein import into peroxisomes. The PTSs responsible for the import of matrix and membrane proteins to peroxisomes, the receptors for several of these PTSs, and docking proteins for the PTS1 and PTS2 receptors are known. Many ...
Most of the mitochondrial inner-membrane proteins are generated without a presequence and their targeting depends on inadequately defined internal segments. Despite the numerous components of the import machinery identified by proteomics, the properties of hydrophobic import substrates remain poorly understood. Recent studies support several principles for these membrane proteins: first, they b...
