| Abstract | Most mitochondrial membrane proteins are synthesized in the cytosol and must be delivered to the organelle in an unfolded, import competent form. In mammalian cells, the cytosolic chaperones Hsp90 and Hsp70 are part of a large cytosolic complex that deliver the membrane protein to the mitochondrion by docking with the import receptor Tom70. These two abundant chaperones have other functions in the cell suggesting that the specificity for the targeting of mitochondrial proteins requires the addition of specific factors within the targeting complex. We identify Tom34 as a cochaperone of Hsp70/Hsp90 in mitochondrial protein import. We show that Tom34 is an integral component with Hsp70 and Hsp90 in the large complex. We also demonstrate the role of Tom34 in the mitochondrial import process, as the addition of an excess of Tom34 prevents efficient mitochondrial translocation of precursor proteins that have requirements for Hsp70/Hsp90. Tom34 exhibits an affinity for mitochondrial preproteins of the Tom70 translocation pathway as demonstrated by binding assays using in vitro translated proteins as baits. In addition, we examined the specificity and the size of different complex cytosolic machines. Separation of different radiolabeled cell-free translated proteins on Native-PAGE showed the presence of a high molecular weight complex which binds hydrophobic proteins. Importantly we show that the formation of the chaperone cytosolic complex that mediates the targeting of proteins to the mitochondria contains Tom34 and assembles in the presence of a fully translated substrate protein. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
