The assembly of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complexes is an
intricate process, which—given their dual-genetic control—requires tight co-regulation of two …

One of the most salient features of Bacillus subtilis and related bacilli is their natural capacity
to secrete a variety of proteins into their environment, frequently to high concentrations. This …

Mitochondrial retrograde signaling is a pathway of communication from mitochondria to the
nucleus that influences many cellular and organismal activities under both normal and …

The chloroplast genes ycf3 and ycf4 from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii have
been characterized. The deduced amino acid sequences of Ycf4 (197 residues) and Ycf3 …

Most mitochondrial proteins are synthesized in the cytosol and transported into mitochondria
by protein translocases. Yet, mitochondria contain their own genome and gene expression …

To understand the regulatory mechanisms underlying the biogenesis of photosystem II (PSII)
we have characterized the nuclear mutant hcf136 of Arabidopsis thaliana and isolated the …

Numerous membrane proteins form multisubunit protein complexes, which contain both
integral and peripheral subunits, in addition to prosthetic groups. Bacterial membrane …

A number of nuclear encoded inner membrane proteins of mitochondria span the membrane
in such a manner that their N termini are located in the intermembrane space. Many of these …

Mitochondria are essential organelles for neuronal function and cell survival. Besides the
well-known bioenergetics, additional mitochondrial roles in calcium signaling, lipid …

The Escherichia coli YidC protein belongs to the Oxa1 family of membrane proteins that
have been suggested to facilitate the insertion and assembly of membrane proteins either in …
