Article Synopsis
- The mitochondrial intermembrane space (IMS) is a small but diverse area of the mitochondria, containing 5%-10% of its proteins and having unique protein import mechanisms.
- Unlike other mitochondrial proteins, IMS proteins only need to pass through the outer membrane without using energy from ATP, highlighting their distinct import processes.
- Understanding how proteins enter the IMS is vital, as many are linked to human diseases, and this knowledge can enhance our grasp of various health disorders.
