Journal ArticleDOI
An ER surface retrieval pathway safeguards the import of mitochondrial membrane proteins in yeast
Katja G. Hansen,Naama Aviram,Janina Laborenz,Chen Bibi,Maren Meyer,Anne Spang,Maya Schuldiner,Johannes M. Herrmann +7 more
TL;DR: A genome-wide screen in yeast uncovered an unexpected path, termed ER-SURF, for targeting of mitochondrial membrane proteins, which retrieves mitochondrial proteins from the ER surface and reroutes them to mitochondria with the aid of the ER-localized chaperone Djp1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transport of Proteins into Mitochondria
TL;DR: This review article provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms and components of the mitochondrial protein import systems with a particular focus on recent developments in the field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Balanced mitochondrial and cytosolic translatomes underlie the biogenesis of human respiratory complexes
Iliana C. Soto,Mary T. Couvillion,Katja G. Hansen,Erik McShane,John Conor Moran,Antoni Barrientos,L. Stirling Churchman +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors proposed that human OXPHOS complexes are synthesized proportionally to each other, with mitonuclear balance relying on the regulation of OPHOS subunit translation across cellular compartments, which may represent a proteostasis vulnerability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Import of ribosomal proteins into yeast mitochondria.
TL;DR: This review article summarizes the current knowledge on the transport of proteins into the mitochondrial matrix, and thereby specifically focus on proteins of the mitochondrial ribosome.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro import experiments with semi-intact cells suggest a role of the Sec61 paralog Ssh1 in mitochondrial biogenesis.
Janina Laborenz,Katja G. Hansen,Cristina Prescianotto-Baschong,Anne Spang,Johannes M. Herrmann +4 more
TL;DR: An in vitro system using semi-intact yeast cells to test a potential import relevance of the ER proteins Erg3, Lcb5 and Ssh1, all being required for efficient mitochondrial respiration finds that cells lacking Ssh 1 show a reduced import efficiency of mitochondrial precursor proteins.
