Protein
Mitochondrial import inner membrane translocase subunit TIM44-1
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
Essential component of the PAM complex, a complex required for the translocation of transit peptide-containing proteins from the inner membrane into the mitochondrial matrix in an ATP-dependent manner. Recruits mitochondrial HSP70 to drive protein translocation into the matrix using ATP as an energy source (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the Tim44 family.
