metabolism | plant mitochondrial protein carbonylation, an irreversible oxidative protein modification that inactivates the protein function, and role of the ATP-dependent proteases in defending mitochondria against accumulation of carbonylated proteins, overview. In plants, carbonylated proteins are found in virtually all cellular compartments - cytosol, chloroplasts, peroxisomes, nucleus, and mitochondria - and in the entire plant life cycle with especially high levels at certain stages of growth and development. Carbonylated breakdown products of mitochondrial proteins might act as secondary messengers in retrograde signaling from plant mitochondria to the nucleus. mitochondria depend on a series of pathways that continuously monitor and remove oxidatively damaged proteins | Arabidopsis thaliana |
physiological function | the Lon protease is an ATP-dependent serine protease recognized as a key protease up-regulated under oxidative stress and involved in the removal of oxidized proteins, the mitochondrial inner membrane i-AAA protease is a crucial component of the defense against accumulation of carbonylated proteins. Due to the irreversible and unrepairable nature of protein carbonylation, proteolytic elimination of oxidatively damaged polypeptides is the major process of the mitochondrial protein quality control system under oxidative stress as first line of defense | Arabidopsis thaliana |
