Article Abstract
Background: Oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complexes consist of nuclear and mitochondrial DNA-encoded subunits. Their biogenesis requires cross-compartment gene regulation to mitigate the accumulation of disproportionate subunits. To determine how human cells coordinate mitochondrial and nuclear gene expression processes, we tailored ribosome profiling for the unique features of the human mitoribosome.
Results: We resolve features of mitochondrial translation initiation and identify a small ORF in the 3' UTR of MT-ND5. Analysis of ribosome footprints in five cell types reveals that average mitochondrial synthesis levels correspond precisely to cytosolic levels across OXPHOS complexes, and these average rates reflect the relative abundances of the complexes. Balanced mitochondrial and cytosolic synthesis does not rely on rapid feedback between the two translation systems, and imbalance caused by mitochondrial translation deficiency is associated with the induction of proteotoxicity pathways.
Conclusions: Based on our findings, we propose that human OXPHOS complexes are synthesized proportionally to each other, with mitonuclear balance relying on the regulation of OXPHOS subunit translation across cellular compartments, which may represent a proteostasis vulnerability.

Human mitochondrial 12S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) 1555A>G mutation has been associated with aminoglycoside-induced and nonsyndromic deafness in many families worldwide. Our previous investigation revealed that the m.1555A>G mutation impaired mitochondrial translation and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS).

Stressful experiences form stronger memories due to enhanced neural plasticity mechanisms linked to glucocorticoid hormones (cortisol in humans, corticosterone in rats). Among other neural structures, the dorsal striatum plays a role in the corticosterone-induced consolidation of stressful memories, particularly in the cued water maze task. Neural plasticity is related to mitochondrial activity due to the relevance of energy production and signaling mechanisms for functional and morphological neuronal adaptations.

The mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPR) maintains mitochondrial quality control and proteostasis under stress conditions. However, the role of UPR in aggressive and resistant prostate cancer is not clearly defined. We show that castration-resistant neuroendocrine prostate cancer (CRPC-NE) harbored highly dysfunctional oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) Complexes.

Background/objectives: Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) has been exploited as a therapeutic target in cancer treatments because of its crucial role in tumorigenesis. CR6-interacting factor 1 (CRIF1), a mitochondrial ribosomal subunit protein, is essential for the regulation of mitochondrial OXPHOS capacity. However, the mechanism of CRIF1 in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells remains unclear.

Chemoresistance poses a critical obstacle in bladder cancer (BCa) treatment, and effective interventions are currently limited. Elevated oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) has been linked to cancer stemness, a determinant of chemoresistance. However, the mechanisms underlying increased OXPHOS during cancer cell chemoresistance remain unclear.
