High impact information on SAM35

  • Here we report two novel mitochondrial outer membrane proteins in yeast, Tom13 and Tom38/Sam35, that mediate assembly of mitochondrial beta-barrel proteins, Tom40, and/or porin in the outer membrane [1].
  • The presence of two essential proteins in the SAM complex, Sam35 and Sam50, indicates that it plays a central role in mitochondrial biogenesis [2].
  • Here we report the identification of Sam35, the first peripheral mitochondrial outer membrane protein that is essential for cell viability [2].
  • Depletion of Tob38 results in strongly reduced levels of Tob55 and Mas37 and the residual proteins no longer form a complex [3].
  • Tob38-depleted mitochondria are deficient in the import of beta-barrel precursor proteins, but not of other outer membrane proteins or proteins of other mitochondrial subcompartments [3].
