p.3956 right column top paragraph:"Currently, the expected proteome size of the yeast mitochondrion varies between 400 and 786 proteins (primary sources 18–20). The mitochondrial proteome of higher eukaryotes is significantly larger, e.g. about 1000 proteins for the human mitochondrion (primary source 21). The reason for this increased proteome size of higher eukaryotes is not fully understood. A possible explanation offers the presence of isoforms for several mitochondrial enzymes and additional mitochondrial functions (ref 22)." |
