The protein weighs approximately 44 kDa and localizes in the inner mitochondrial membrane. TIM44 works as an essential part of the mitochondrial inner membrane presequence translocase complex where it assists in guiding proteins into the mitochondrial matrix. Expression of TIM44 is observed mainly in tissues with high energetic demands such as muscle and liver.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nTIM44 functions in conjunction with other components of the TIM23 complex which includes proteins like TIM23 and TIM17. The main role of TIM44 involves connecting the translocase complex to mitochondrial heat shock protein 70 (mtHsp70) facilitating ATP-dependent translocation of polypeptides. This process supports the import of precursor proteins synthesized in the cytosol into the mitochondria ensuring proper mitochondrial function and energy production.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nTIM44 influences the mitochondrial protein import pathway and the maintenance of mitochondrial function. As part of the protein import machinery it connects closely to the chaperone-mediated folding pathway aided by mtHsp70. The TIM23 complex participates in the translocation of proteins with mitochondrial targeting sequences linking TIM44 to pathways essential for mitochondrial biogenesis and function.\u003cbr\u003e\nDysfunction in the TIM44 protein associates with mitochondrial disorders including those impacting oxidative phosphorylation capacity. Mutations or deficiencies in TIM44 have connections to disorders such as mitochondrial myopathy. Relation to other proteins such as mtHsp70 and components of oxidative phosphorylation emphasizes the role of TIM44 in cellular energy homeostasis and highlights its importance in maintaining mitochondrial health.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46848596050089,"sku":"ab168649","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab168649","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
