High impact information on SAM50

  • The Omp85 family of proteins is essential for outer membrane biogenesis in mitochondria and bacteria [1].
  • The mitochondrial outer membrane contains two integral proteins essential for cell viability, Tom40 of the translocase of the outer membrane (TOM complex) and Sam50 of the sorting and assembly machinery (SAM complex) [2].
  • The presence of two essential proteins in the SAM complex, Sam35 and Sam50, indicates that it plays a central role in mitochondrial biogenesis [2].
  • An essential role of Sam50 in the protein sorting and assembly machinery of the mitochondrial outer membrane [3].
  • Known constituents of this complex are Tob55 and Mas37 [4].
