High impact information on Tomm40

  • Immunoprecipitation demonstrated that OM38 is associated with the major import receptors rTOM20 and rTOM22, and several other unidentified components with molecular masses of 5-10 kDa in digitonin-solubilized membrane: OM10, OM7.5, and OM5 [1].
  • No formation of 5alpha-reduced forms of Org 4060, Org OM38, or Org 34694 was found, while formation of minor amounts of 3alpha-OH-Org 4060 and 3alpha-OH-Org OM38 could be demonstrated in both uterus, vagina, and aorta [2].
 

Associations of Tomm40 with chemical compounds

  • Blue native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that OM38 is a component of a approximately 400-kDa complex, firmly associating with rTOM22 and loosely associating with rTOM20 [1].
