Homologous nuclear-encoded mitochondrial and cytosolic isoproteins

A review of structure, biosynthesis and genes

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: European Journal of Biochemistry ((EJB REVIEWS,volume 1995))

Abstract

Mitochondrial and cytosolic proteins may be expected to differ in specific traits due to their different intracellular location. However, the identification of these differences between mitochondrial and cytosolic proteins is complicated by the heterogeneity of the two protein groups. These difficulties have been overcome by comparing traits of homologous genes, which are derived from a common ancestor gene, and their gene products.
