Abstract
Complex machinery has evolved to recognise and import nuclear-encoded proteins into mitochondria. Recent work now shows that the plant Tom20 mitochondrial protein import receptor has a similar tertiary structure to animal Tom20, although the proteins are evolutionarily distinct, representing an elegant example of convergent evolution.
摘要
复杂的机制已经进化到能够识别核编码蛋白并将其导入线粒体。最近的研究表明，植物Tom20线粒体蛋白导入受体具有与动物Tom20相似的三级结构，尽管这两种蛋白质在进化上是不同的，这是趋同进化的一个典型例子。
