Mcp3 is a novel mitochondrial outer membrane protein that follows a unique IMP‐dependent biogenesis pathway

Abstract: Mitochondria are separated from the remainder of the eukaryotic cell by the mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM). The MOM plays an important role in different transport processes like lipid trafficking and protein import. In yeast, the ER-mitochondria encounter structure (ERMES) has a central, but poorly defined role in both activities. To understand the functions of the ERMES, we searched for suppressors of the deficiency of one of its components, Mdm10, and identified a novel mitochondrial protein that we name… Show more

“…In the same work, a role for Om45 in coordination of metabolite flux in and out of the organelle via porin channels in the MOM and transporter proteins of the carrier type in the MIM was proposed. Considering a possible involvement of Mcp3 in metabolite transport, we can speculate an alteration of metabolite flux of mitochondria could explain the capacity of high levels of Mcp3 to partially rescue the growth defect of ERMES deletion mutants . Yet, we did not observe a cross‐linking adduct of HA‐Mcp3 with Por1 (data not shown).…”

“…Recently, we identified Mcp3 as a novel MOM protein that partially rescues as an overexpression suppressor ERMES loss of function mutants and follows a unique import pathway . Although we could show that overexpression of Mcp3 in yeast cells lacking functional ERMES complex leads to partial restoration of mitochondrial morphology and lipid composition, the molecular function of Mcp3 in mitochondria is basically unknown.…”
