Mitochondrial protein interactome elucidated by chemical cross-linking mass spectrometry
A collaborative work from the Tian, Marcinek, Shadel and Bruce Laboratories sheds new light on protein structures and interactions in mitochondria
PNAS 2017 ; published ahead of print January 27, 2017, doi:10.1073/pnas.1617220114
Mitochondria meet the majority of living cells’ demand for ATP and, as important regulators of redox homeostasis, metabolite levels, and calcium buffering, are a critical link between cell energetics and signaling. Disruption of these processes can induce adaptive or pathological signaling responses to stress and under severe stress promote cell death. Mitochondria have a complex proteome with conformations and interactions that are not well understood. Mitochondrial dysfunction is a direct cause of rare inherited diseases and is implicated in common metabolic diseases and age-related pathology. This study illuminates protein interactions and conformational features of nearly one-third of the mitochondrial proteome. Network information on this scale will enable groundbreaking insights into mitochondrial function, dysfunction, and potential therapeutic targets for mitochondrial-based pathology.
