  • Along with paraplegin, which causes recessive spastic paraplegia, AFG3L2 is a component of the conserved m-AAA metalloprotease complex involved in the maintenance of the mitochondrial proteome.

  • P > 0.05. (b) Fluorescence immunoblot analysis and protein quantitation of mitochondria-encoded COX subunits Cox1p, Cox2p and Cox3p, and nuclear-encoded subunit Cox4p, in mitochondrial extracts from cells expressing AFG3L2 alone, in the absence of paraplegin.

  • We analyzed immunoprecipitates (IP) by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting (IB) using anti-paraplegin (α-AFG3L2).

  • In addition, given our previous data, we quantified several mitochondrial protease genes, two that are part of the AAA proteases family and located in the inner membrane of the mitochondria (YME1L1 and SPG7 / paraplegin) and two located in the mitochondrial matrix (LON and CLPP).
