  Combinatorial sequence elements fine-tune mitochondrial protein import to facilitate dual localization

  Scientific focus: mitophagy, redox biology, metabolism. Core claim (from abstract): Here, we identify multiple sequence elements that compromise the matrix localization of the phosphatase PPTC7 to facilitate its accumulation at the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM), where it regulates mitophagy. Dysfunction linkage: mitophagy. High priority for readers tracking mitochondrial pathophysiology and translational mito biology.
