Abstract excerpt

We have investigated the unusual import pathway of cytochrome c oxidase subunit Va (COXVa) into the yeast mitochondrial inner membrane by use of mutants that lack import receptors or are defective in matrix hsp70. (i) Mitochondria lacking the receptor MOM72 are not impaired in import of COXVa. Mi...
