Role of Mitochondrial Protein Import in Age-Related Neurodegenerative and Cardiovascular Diseases
14 Dec 2021
Abstract excerpt
Mitochondria play a critical role in providing energy, maintaining cellular metabolism, and regulating cell survival and death. To carry out these crucial functions, mitochondria employ more than 1500 proteins, distributed between two membranes and two aqueous compartments.
