One newly emerged example is mitochondrial precursor overaccumulation stress (mPOS). mPOS is marked by impaired mitochondrial protein import, causing the toxic accumulation and aggregation of unimported mitochondrial precursor proteins in the cytosol. Analogous to the well-studied endoplasmic reticulum stress, which blocks proteins from leaving the cell, mPOS can impose a drastic proteostatic burden in the cytosol and closely interconnects with cell signaling pathways. Here, we review how researchers discovered mPOS and discuss its central importance in several major mitochondria-induced stress signaling pathways. We then focus on the emerging field of mPOS in cell demise and human disease, and we present recent evidence that mPOS can affect cell fitness and survival independent of bioenergetics. Looking forward, mPOS may provide a complementary or alternative pathogenic mechanism to bioenergetic deficit for classic mitochondriopathy and many aging-associated degenerative diseases involving mitochondrial stress.</p>","PeriodicalId":7980,"journal":{"name":"Annual review of biochemistry","volume":" ","pages":"401-429"},"PeriodicalIF":24.9,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147490360","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Promoters mediate constitutive gene expression, whereas operators and enhancers regulate expression in response to physiological conditions. As discovered in the 1980s, interactions between proteins associated with spatially separated elements can loop out the intervening DNA and regulate transcription. Eukaryotic gene regulation is mediated by the same three classes of genetic elements, but due to semantic confusion, it is often believed the eukaryotic enhancers activate transcription from long distances via enhancer-promoter loops. However, eukaryotic enhancers mediate only local changes in chromatin, and they stimulate transcription via directional and short-range interactions with the basic RNA polymerase II machinery at promoters. Enhancer action at a distance is mediated by loops between proximal and distal enhancers that bring activator proteins associated with distal enhancers in proximity to promoters. Thus, Jacques Monod's 1954 conjecture that \"what is true for <i>E. coli</i> is true for the elephant, only more so\" has proven correct.</p>","PeriodicalId":7980,"journal":{"name":"Annual review of biochemistry","volume":" ","pages":"199-219"},"PeriodicalIF":24.9,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13070478/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147490386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, comprehending the complex assemblies of membrane proteins, and their intrinsic interactions, is crucial for unraveling the mechanisms of cellular regulation and has implications in disease pathology. Over the past three decades, native mass spectrometry (MS) has emerged as a pivotal tool for investigating the structure and dynamics of proteins, including membrane protein complexes. In this review, we discuss recent developments in instrumentation that advance our ability to characterize membrane proteins in their native context. As we transition toward increasingly complex eukaryotic systems, we show how this information is translated into an understanding of disease.

In ion channels, anesthetics bind within an allosteric conduction pathway or compete for binding of regulatory lipids.

In this model, EVs are loaded with unwanted or toxic cargo, secreted upon cellular or organismal stress, and degraded by other cells.
