Mitochondrial diseases caused by dysfunctional mitochondrial protein import

Abstract: Mitochondria are essential organelles which perform complex and varied functions within eukaryotic cells. Maintenance of mitochondrial health and functionality is thus a key cellular priority and relies on the organelle's extensive proteome. The mitochondrial proteome is largely encoded by nuclear genes, and mitochondrial proteins must be sorted to the correct mitochondrial sub-compartment post-translationally. This essential process is carried out by multimeric and dynamic translocation and sorting machinerie… Show more

“…Novel pathogenic mechanisms involving mitochondria are currently discovered across all medical disciplines, including oncology, neurology, cardiology and immunology [ 171 , 172 , 173 , 174 ]. Investigations on mechanisms that affect the functions of TOM70 can take advantage of the fact that TOM70 and the associated protein import machinery are highly conserved from yeast to humans [ 52 ] ( Table 2 ).…”

“…Dysfunction of mitochondria is associated with many pathologies, including cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative disease. Mitochondrial diseases are genetic disorders that arise due to defective ATP production within the mitochondrion Jackson et al, 2018). Mitochondria require >1500 nuclear-encoded proteins to function; these proteins are delivered to specific mitochondrial sub-compartments (outer membrane; intermembrane space, inner membrane and matrix) by translocation and sorting machineries (Wiedemann and Pfanner, 2017).…”

“…Mitochondria require >1500 nuclear-encoded proteins to function; these proteins are delivered to specific mitochondrial sub-compartments (outer membrane; intermembrane space, inner membrane and matrix) by translocation and sorting machineries (Wiedemann and Pfanner, 2017). Mutations in genes encoding various subunits of mitochondrial translocation machineries have been linked to a number of distinct mitochondrial diseases (Jackson et al, 2018).…”

“…We further tested this by examining mitochondrial PPIs with SIMPL as mitochondria are special organelles with distinct features and their PPIs are often difficult to study. We selected several well-studied mitochondrial PPIs for this purpose ( Supplementary Table 4), including proteins involved in oxidative phosphorylation 28 , transport 29 , cristea organization 30 , and metabolism 31 . Baits were prepared using the IN format to avoid interference of transit peptides usually at N-termini of mitochondrial proteins.…”
