Function |
Central component of the receptor complex responsible for the recognition and translocation of cytosolically synthesized mitochondrial preproteins. Together with TOM22 functions as the transit peptide receptor at the surface of the mitochondrion outer membrane and facilitates the movement of preproteins into the TOM40 translocation pore (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Mitochondrion outer membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
