Defective valyl-tRNA synthetase hampers the mitochondrial respiratory chain in Neurospora crassa.
Respiratory chain deficiency can result from alterations in mitochondrial and/or cytosolic protein synthesis due to the dual genetic origin of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. In the present paper we report a point mutation (D750G) in the bifunctional VARS (valyl-tRNA synthetase) of the fungus Neurospora crassa, associated with a temperature-sensitive phenotype. Analysis of the mutant s...
متن کاملMitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase of wild-type and poky Neurospora crassa.
We have compared the adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity of mitochondria prepared from wild-type Neurospora crassa and from poky, a maternally inherited mutant known to possess defective mitochondrial ribosomes and reduced amounts of cytochromes aa3 and b. poky contains two distinct forms of mitochondrial ATPase. The first is normal in its Km for ATP, specificity for nucleotides and diva...
متن کاملMitochondrial DNA Mutations Provoke Dominant Inhibition of Mitochondrial Inner Membrane Fusion
Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously move, fuse and divide. Mitochondrial dynamics modulate overall mitochondrial morphology and are essential for the proper function, maintenance and transmission of mitochondria and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). We have investigated mitochondrial fusion in yeast cells with severe defects in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) due to removal...
متن کاملAge-associated mosaic respiratory chain deficiency causes trans-neuronal degeneration
Heteroplasmic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations (mutations present only in a subset of cellular mtDNA copies) arise de novo during the normal ageing process or may be maternally inherited in pedigrees with mitochondrial disease syndromes. A pathogenic mtDNA mutation causes respiratory chain deficiency only if the fraction of mutated mtDNA exceeds a certain threshold level. These mutations oft...
متن کاملStructural requirements of Tom40 for assembly into preexisting TOM complexes of mitochondria.
Tom40 is the major subunit of the translocase of the outer mitochondrial membrane (the TOM complex). To study the assembly pathway of Tom40, we have followed the integration of the protein into the TOM complex in vitro and in vivo using wild-type and altered versions of the Neurospora crassa Tom40 protein. Upon import into isolated mitochondria, Tom40 precursor proteins lacking the first 20 or ...
