Biological information

Gene full nameProduct
Translational Activator of Cytochrome C Oxidase 1Translational Activator of Cytochrome C Oxidase 1 (a ribosome-associated translation factor, dually targeted to mitochondria and chlorplasts)
Gene synonymKeyword
-TACO1, YebC, Mitochondrial translation, Chloroplast translation, Polyproline motif, Ribosomal stalling
Gene alias (spelling variants only; distinct from synonym)
YebC (bacterial homologue)
Strain/accession/mutantDescription
Tak-1In Marchantia polymorpha Tak-1, TACO1 was shown to be dually targeted to mitochondria and chloroplasts. Structure determination of MpTACO1 and comparative structural analyses revealed strong conservation of YebC/TACO1 across bacteria and eukaryotes, consistent with a conserved role in aiding ribosomes during translation of polyproline-containing regions in mitochondria and chloroplasts.
