Translocase of Outer Mitochondrial Membrane 6 (TOMM6) is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the TOMM6 gene. It is part of the TOMM complex (translocase of the outer mitochondrial membrane), which is responsible for the recognition and translocation of nuclear-encoded proteins into the mitochondria.The TOMM complex is crucial for mitochondrial function, as it enables the import of proteins synthesized in the cytoplasm that are destined for the mitochondria. These proteins include those involved in oxidative phosphorylation, mitochondrial DNA maintenance, and other key mitochondrial functions.
As a component of the TOMM complex, TOMM6 helps facilitate this import process. While the specific role of TOMM6 within the complex isn't fully understood, it's likely that it contributes to the overall structure of the TOMM complex and/or the recognition and passage of proteins into the mitochondria.Disruptions in mitochondrial protein import can have serious consequences, as it can impair mitochondrial function and lead to a variety of mitochondrial diseases.In summary, TOMM6 is a component of the TOMM complex, which is essential for the import of proteins into the mitochondria. TOMM6 likely contributes to the structure and function of the TOMM complex, playing a role in maintaining mitochondrial function.
