The mechanisms of interaction of nuclear and mitochondrial genes in biogenesis of mitochondria are discussed in this review. Brief characterization of yeast mitochondrial genes and their products is presented. The mechanism of nuclear and mitochondrial control of expression of the mosaic genes in mitochondria is described. The data on the processing of imported mitochondrial proteins synthesized on cytoplasmic ribosomes are presented. The possibility of existence of common proteins encoded for by common genes and possessing similar functions in the cytoplasm and mitochondria is discussed. A hypothesis is put forward considering the role of common proteins in coordination of nuclear and mitochondrial genes' expression in biogenesis of mitochondria. 相似文献

Mitochondria are dynamic organelles whose functional integrity requires a coordinated supply of proteins and phospholipids. Defined functions of specific phospholipids, like the mitochondrial signature lipid cardiolipin, are emerging in diverse processes, ranging from protein biogenesis and energy production to membrane fusion and apoptosis. The accumulation of phospholipids within mitochondria depends on interorganellar lipid transport between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria as well as intramitochondrial lipid trafficking. The discovery of proteins that regulate mitochondrial membrane lipid composition and of a multiprotein complex tethering ER to mitochondrial membranes has unveiled novel mechanisms of mitochondrial membrane biogenesis. 相似文献

The abundance of mitochondria is regulated by biogenesis and division. These processes are controlled by cellular factors, given that, for example, mitochondria have to replicate their DNA prior to cell division. However, the mechanisms that allow a synchronization of cell proliferation with mitochondrial genome replication are still obscure. We report here our investigations on the role of proliferation and the contribution of Ras and p66Shc in the regulation of mitochondrial DNA copy number. Ras proteins mediate a variety of receptor-transduced mitogenic signals and appear to play an essential role in the cellular response to growth factors. P66Shc is a genetic determinant of life span in mammals and has been implicated in the regulation of receptor signaling and various mitochondrial functions. First, we confirmed previous reports showing that mitochondrial DNA is replicated during a specific phase of the cell cycle (the pre-S phase) and provided novel evidences that this process is regulated by mitogenic growth factors. Second, we showed that mitochondrial DNA replication is activated following Ras-induced cellular hyper-proliferation. Finally, we showed that p66Shc expression induces mitochondrial DNA replication, both in vitro and in vivo. We suggest that mitochondria are target of intracellular signaling pathways leading to proliferation, involving Ras and p66Shc, which might function to integrate cellular bio-energetic requirements and the inheritance of mitochondrial DNA in a cell cycle-dependent manner. 相似文献

Mitochondria perform a central function in the biogenesis of cellular iron-sulphur (Fe/S) proteins. It is unknown to date why this biosynthetic pathway is indispensable for life, the more so as no essential mitochondrial Fe/S proteins are known. Here, we show that the soluble ATP-binding cassette (ABC) protein Rli1p carries N-terminal Fe/S clusters that require the mitochondrial and cytosolic Fe/S protein biogenesis machineries for assembly. Mutations in critical cysteine residues of Rli1p abolish association with Fe/S clusters and lead to loss of cell viability. Hence, the essential character of Fe/S clusters in Rli1p explains the indispensable character of mitochondria in eukaryotes. We further report that Rli1p is associated with ribosomes and with Hcr1p, a protein involved in rRNA processing and translation initiation. Depletion of Rli1p causes a nuclear export defect of the small and large ribosomal subunits and subsequently a translational arrest. Thus, ribosome biogenesis and function are intimately linked to the crucial role of mitochondria in the maturation of the essential Fe/S protein Rli1p. 相似文献

Biogenesis of iron-sulfur proteins in eukaryotes: components, mechanism and pathology 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters are ubiquitous co-factors of proteins that play an important role in metabolism, electron-transfer and regulation of gene expression. In eukaryotes mitochondria are the primary site of Fe-S cluster biogenesis. The organelles contain some ten proteins of the so-called iron-sulfur cluster (ISC) assembly machinery that is well-conserved in bacteria and eukaryotes. The ISC assembly machinery is responsible for biogenesis of Fe-S proteins within mitochondria. In addition, this machinery is involved in the maturation of extra-mitochondrial Fe-S proteins by cooperating with mitochondrial proteins with an exclusive function in this process. This review summarizes recent developments in our understanding of the biogenesis of cellular Fe-S proteins in eukaryotes. Particular emphasis is given to disorders in Fe-S protein biogenesis causing human disease. 相似文献

The proteins of the mitochondrial intermembrane space (IMS) are encoded by nuclear genes and synthesized on cytosolic ribosomes. While some IMS proteins are imported by the classical presequence pathway that involves the membrane potential deltapsi across the inner mitochondrial membrane and proteolytic processing to release the mature protein to the IMS, the import of numerous small IMS proteins is independent of a deltapsi and does not include proteolytic processing. The biogenesis of small IMS proteins requires an essential mitochondrial IMS import and assembly protein, termed Mia40. Here, we show that Erv1, a further essential IMS protein that has been reported to function as a sulfhydryl oxidase and participate in biogenesis of Fe/S proteins, is also required for the biogenesis of small IMS proteins. We generated a temperature-sensitive yeast mutant of Erv1 and observed a strong reduction of the levels of small IMS proteins upon shift of the cells to non-permissive temperature. Isolated erv1-2 mitochondria were selectively impaired in import of small IMS proteins while protein import pathways to other mitochondrial subcompartments were not affected. Small IMS precursor proteins remained associated with Mia40 in erv1-2 mitochondria and were not assembled into mature oligomeric complexes. Moreover, Erv1 associated with Mia40 in a reductant-sensitive manner. We conclude that two essential proteins, Mia40 and Erv1, cooperate in the assembly pathway of small proteins of the mitochondrial IMS. 相似文献

Mitochondria are indispensable for cell viability; however, major mitochondrial functions including citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation are dispensable. Most known essential mitochondrial proteins are involved in preprotein import and assembly, while the only known essential biosynthetic process performed by mitochondria is the biogenesis of iron-sulfur clusters (ISC). The components of the mitochondrial ISC-assembly machinery are derived from the prokaryotic ISC-assembly machinery. We have identified an essential mitochondrial matrix protein, Isd11 (YER048w-a), that is found in eukaryotes only. Isd11 is required for biogenesis of cellular Fe/S proteins and thus is a novel subunit of the mitochondrial ISC-assembly machinery. It forms a complex with the cysteine desulfurase Nfs1 and is required for formation of an Fe/S cluster on the Isu scaffold proteins. We conclude that Isd11 is an indispensable eukaryotic component of the mitochondrial machinery for biogenesis of Fe/S proteins. 相似文献
