Gene names

Representative property or function

Log2-fold change

Up-regulated proteins

MRPS36

28S ribosomal protein S36. MRPS36 is upregulated by excessive ROS, and functions as a ROS-sensing marker.

4.983

UQCR10

Subunit of mitochondrial complex III.

3.197

COA3

Stabilizer of cytochrome c oxidase, and essential for ROS generation.

3.108

TOMM40

Channel-forming protein essential for import of protein precursors into mitochondria.

2.478

Down-regulated proteins

PYCR2

Loss of function leads to decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and increased susceptibility to apoptosis under oxidative stress.

−3.661

FAM162A

Involved in regulation of apoptosis and in hypoxia-induced cell death of transformed cells.

−3.339

REXO2

Loss of function affects cellular morphology and leads cell cycle to G0/G1 arrest.

−3.272

SLC25A4

Involved in mitochondrial ADP/ATP transport. Its silencing induces oxidative stress and apoptosis.

−3.205

SOD2

Neutralize superoxide anion radicals.

−2.986

MRPL13

Mitochondrial ribosomal protein L13. Its silencing lead to decrease production of mitochondrial proteins.

−2.954

CLIC4

Inhibition of CLIC4 enhances autophagy and triggers mitochondrial and ER stress-induced apoptosis.

−2.918

NDUFB9

Mitochondrial membrane respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase.

−2.818
