Assembling the mitochondrial outer membrane
Abstract
The general preprotein translocase of the outer mitochondrial membrane (TOM complex) transports virtually all mitochondrial precursor proteins, but cannot assemble outer-membrane precursors into functional complexes. A recently discovered sorting and assembly machinery (SAM complex) is essential for integration and assembly of outer-membrane proteins, revealing unexpected connections to mitochondrial evolution and morphology.
