Transcriptomics DNAJC15 and DNAJC19 knockdown in HeLa cells
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: To better understand how OMA1 affects mitochondrial proteostasis and stress responses, we performed a proteomic survey of OMA1-deficient cells for proteolytic substrates. We demonstrate that OMA1 cleaves the mitochondrial chaperone DNAJC15 facilitating its degradation by the mitochondrial m-AAA protease. The loss of DNAJC15 alters protein import by TIM23 protein translocases in the IM and limits the accumulation of OXPHOS-related mitochondrial matrix and IM proteins. Non-imported mitochondrial preproteins accumulate at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and trigger an ATF6-related unfolded protein response. These results demonstrate that OMA1 allows to adapt mitochondrial protein biogenesis to stress and reveal an intricate network of cellular stress responses to proteostasis disturbances.
