Comparative mitochondrial proteomics: perspective in human diseases
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mitochondria are the most complex and the most important organelles of eukaryotic cells, which are involved in many cellular processes, including energy metabolism, apoptosis, and aging. And mitochondria have been identified as the "hot spot" by researchers for exploring relevant associated dysfunctions in many fields. The emergence of comparative proteomics enables us to have a close look at the mitochondrial proteome in a comprehensive and effective manner under various conditions and cellular circumstances. Two-dimensional electrophoresis combined with mass spectrometry is still the most popular techniques to study comparative mitochondrial proteomics. Furthermore, many new techniques, such as ICAT, MudPIT, and SILAC, equip researchers with more flexibilities inselecting proper methods. This article also reviews the recent development of comparative mitochondrial proteomics on diverse human diseases. And the results of mitochondrial proteomics enhance a better understanding of the pathogenesis associated with mitochondria and provide promising therapeutic targets.

Comparative Analysis of Mitochondrial N-Termini from Mouse, Human, and Yeast.
The majority of mitochondrial proteins are encoded in the nuclear genome, translated in the cytoplasm, and directed to the mitochondria by an N-terminal presequence that is cleaved upon import. Recently, N-proteome catalogs have been generated for mitochondria from yeast and from human U937 cells. Here, we applied the subtiligase method to determine N-termini for 327 proteins in mitochondria is...
متن کاملDifferential mitochondrial protein expression profiling in neurodegenerative diseases.
Alterations in mitochondrial structure or function have been described in a variety of human diseases for nearly half a century. The complete sequence of the human mitochondrial genome has been published in 1981. The mitochondrial proteome database however, is still incomplete. Here I give a short review on recent advances to determine the complete set of mitochondrial proteins. The main emphas...

Comparative genomic and proteomic analyses have identified approximately half of the estimated 1,500 mitochondrial proteins encoded by the human nuclear genome. In recently published studies, Agilent Seahorse XF assays have extended these estimates through the identification of functional roles of some of the nuclear and mtDNAencoded proteins, and in one case, clarifying assumptions about their...
