How proteins are imported into human mitochondria?
Many mitochondrial proteins utilize the TIM23 complex for their translocation. Prof.
Agnieszka Chacińska and her team showed high conservation of the human TIM23 translocase when compared to highly studied yeast.
Klaudia Maruszczak and Piotr Draczkowski used computational tools to get first architectural insights into protein transport into mitochondria in human cells.
