1. PresequenceProtease (PreP), a novel Peptidasome in Mitochondria and Chloroplasts : Localization, Function, Structure and Mechanism of Proteolysis
Abstract : The information for mitochondrial and chloroplastic protein import and targeting generally resides in the N-terminal part of the protein, called a targeting peptide. The targeting peptide is cleaved off by the organellar processing peptidases after import of a precursor protein. READ MORE

2. Dual targeting of glutathione reductase to mitochondria and chloroplasts
Abstract : As a consequence of the presence of both mitochondria and chloroplasts in plant cells there is a higher sorting requirement in a plant cell than that in a non-plant cell. Reflecting this, protein import to mitochondria and chloroplasts has been shown to be highly specific. READ MORE

3. Dual targeting of proteins to mitochondria and chloroplasts : Characterization of dual targeting peptides and their interaction with organellar receptors
Abstract : Most mitochondrial and chloroplastic proteins are synthesized in the cytosol as precursor proteins with an N-terminal targeting peptide (TP), which directs them to the correct organelle. There is also a group of proteins that are dual targeted to mitochondria and chloroplasts using an ambiguous N-terminal dual targeting peptide (dTP). READ MORE

4. Dual Targeting of Proteins to Mitochondria and Chloroplasts
Abstract : The vast majority of mitochondrial and chloroplastic proteins are nuclear encoded, synthesized in the cytosol and imported into the respective organelle using an N-terminal extension, the targeting peptide (TP). After import into the organelle, the TP is cleaved off and degraded by the Presequence protease (PreP). READ MORE

5. F F₁-ATPase of plant mitochondria : purification and characterization of the structural and functional properties of the individual subunits
Abstract : Plant leaf cells constitute a unique system in which both mitochondria and chloroplasts are responsible for energy conversion. In both organelles, ATP synthase is responsible for the synthesis of ATP from ADP and Pi in a process coupled to an electron transfer chain. READ MORE
