The carrier translocase (TIM22 complex) inserts hydrophobic proteins into the mitochondrial inner membrane. Recently, the acylglycerol kinase (AGK) mutated in Sengers syndrome was identified as a novel subunit of the human TIM22 complex. This finding reveals an exciting link between mitochondrial protein and lipid biogenesis.
载体转位酶(TIM22 复合物)将疏水性蛋白插入线粒体的内膜中。最近,在 Sengers 综合征中突变的酰基甘油激酶(AGK)被鉴定为人类 TIM22 复合物的一个新亚基。这一发现揭示了线粒体蛋白质和脂质生物发生之间令人兴奋的联系。
