Supplementary information

MRPL18 also known as mitochondrial ribosomal protein L18 is an integral component of the mitochondrial ribosome. This protein has a molecular mass of about 21 kDa. It plays a mechanical role in the translation of mitochondrial mRNA aiding the assembly of protein synthesis machinery. MRPL18 finds expression predominantly in tissues with high energy requirements such as heart and brain.
Biological function summary

MRPL18 is essential for mitochondrial protein biosynthesis. It forms part of the 39S subunit of the mitochondrial ribosome implicating its role in the production of polypeptides catalyzed by mitochondrial DNA. By facilitating efficient translation of genetic material into functional proteins MRPL18 collaborates with other ribosomal proteins and rRNA to maintain mitochondrial function.

Pathways

MRPL18 significantly contributes to oxidative phosphorylation and energy generation pathways. It supports these pathways by translating essential components of the electron transport chain. Closely related proteins like MRPL49 and MRPS16 also participate in these pathways together ensuring effective energy transduction within the cell.

MRPL18 shows associations with mitochondrial diseases such as mitochondrial encephalomyopathy. Impaired function or mutations in MRPL18 can disrupt mitochondrial protein synthesis leading to defective energy metabolism. The target's relationship with proteins like MRPS22 highlights its involvement in disease mechanisms affecting cellular energy homeostasis.

Target data

Together with thiosulfate sulfurtransferase (TST), acts as a mitochondrial import factor for the cytosolic 5S rRNA. The precursor form shows RNA chaperone activity; is able to fold the 5S rRNA into an import-competent conformation that is recognized by rhodanese (TST). Both the cytoplasmic and mitochondrial forms are able to bind to the helix IV-loop D in the gamma domain of the 5S rRNA.
