Other Names | Mitochondrial import inner membrane translocase subunit Tim8 B, DDP-like protein, Deafness dystonia protein 2, TIMM8B, DDP2, DDPL, TIM8B |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP13671c was selected from the Center region of TIMM8B. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | TIMM8B |
---|---|
Synonyms | DDP2, DDPL, TIM8B |
Function | Probable mitochondrial intermembrane chaperone that participates in the import and insertion of some multi-pass transmembrane proteins into the mitochondrial inner membrane. Also required for the transfer of beta-barrel precursors from the TOM complex to the sorting and assembly machinery (SAM complex) of the outer membrane. Acts as a chaperone-like protein that protects the hydrophobic precursors from aggregation and guide them through the mitochondrial intermembrane space (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Mitochondrion inner membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Intermembrane side |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitous, with highest expression in heart, kidney, liver and skeletal muscle. |

Background
This gene encodes a member of a well-conserved family ofproteins with similarity to yeast Tim mitochondrial importproteins. This gene is encoded by a nuclear gene and is transportedinto the intermembrane space of the mitochondrion. When formed intocomplexes, these proteins guide membrane-spanning proteins acrossthe mitochondrial intermembrane space before they are added intothe mitochondrial inner membrane. This gene is adjacent tosuccinate dehydrogenase, subunit D (SDHD), in which mutations havebeen found in affected members of families with hereditaryparaganglioma.
