23. For cross-linking, in vitro import was for 10 min at 20°C, and nonimported precursor was digested with proteinase K (30 μg/ml). Mitochondria were washed, resuspended at 1 mg/ml in import buffer, and incubated with 1 mM dithiobis(succinimidylpropionate) (DSP) for 30 min at 4°C followed by a quench with 100 mM tris-base, pH 8.0. For immunoprecipitation, solubilized mitochondria were incubated with monospecific polyclonal antibodies coupled to protein A-Sepharose (27).
24. 5 transformants in strain tim10-1, 46 transformants grew at 37°C; all of them contained only TIM10 as the "suppressor" gene.
25. 2+-nitrilotriacetic acid-Sepharose (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Polyclonal antibodies against Tim10p or Tim12p were raised against the recombinant proteins Tim10p that had been cleaved from a glutathione-S-transferase-Tim10p fusion or a thioredoxin-Tim12p fusion protein, respectively. Polyclonal antibodies against Tim22p were raised against a thioredoxin-Tim22p fusion protein in which the first 16 amino acids of Tim22p had been inserted between amino acids 34 and 35 of thioredoxin.
