The translocase of the outer membrane (TOM) complex is the main entry gate used by most nucleus-encoded mitochondrial precursor proteins. Presequence-carrying preproteins are then imported by the ...

Importantly, recent studies have revealed that the dynamic ER network physically interacts with other intracellular organelles and endomembrane compartments, such as the Golgi complex, mitochondria, ...

Outer layers of cell Cell membrane, surrounded by cell wall in ... cell organelles include mitochondria, ribosomes and chloroplasts in plants. Cytoplasm, ribosomes present; there are no ...

They also have a sophisticated plumbing system in the form of a three-part protein complex -- MacAB-TolC -- that spans the cell's inner and outer membranes, as well as the periplasm that connects ...

The secretory proteome plays an important role in the pathogenesis of phytopathogenic fungi. However, the relationship between the large-scale secretome of phytopathogenic fungi and their lifestyle is ...

Their results show that the basic units of the photosynthetic membranes of the chloroplasts shrink by only 1 nm following water loss, but recover 18 hours after rewatering. Drought and evolution ...
