Mutational analysis of functional domains in Mrs2p, the mitochondrial Mg2+ channel protein of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

The FEBS journal - 1 Mar 2006

Weghuber Julian, Dieterich Frank, Froschauer Elisabeth M, Svidovà Sona, Schweyen Rudolf J

Abstract excerpt

The nuclear gene MRS2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes an integral protein (Mrs2p) of the inner mitochondrial membrane. It forms an ion channel mediating influx of Mg2+ into mitochondria. Orthologues of Mrs2p have been shown to exist in other lower eukaryotes, in vertebrates and in plants. Characteristic features of the Mrs2 protein family and the distantly related CorA proteins of bacteria are the presence of...
