Protein transport along the presequence pathway

Abstract: Most mitochondrial proteins are nuclear-encoded and imported by the protein import machinery based on specific targeting signals. The proteins that carry an amino-terminal targeting signal (presequence) are imported via the presequence import pathway that involves the translocases of the outer and inner membranes – TOM and TIM23 complexes. In this article, we discuss how mitochondrial matrix and inner membrane precursor proteins are imported along the presequence pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae with a focus on the dynamics of the TIM23 complex, and further update with some of the key findings that advanced the field in the last few years.
