The mitochondrial proteome comprises ~1,000–1,500 nuclear-encoded and mitochondrial-encoded proteins. To ensure proper mitochondrial function, cells use multiple mechanisms of quality control that survey mitochondrial protein biogenesis, import and folding, and allow mitochondria to adapt to the changing needs as well as to respond to stresses that compromise proteostasis.
