ABSTRACT
The insertion of organellar membrane proteins with the correct topology requires the following First, the proteins must contain topogenic signals for translocation across and insertion into the membrane. Second, proteinaceous complexes in the cytoplasm, membrane, and lumen of organelles are required to drive this process. Many complexes required for the intracellular distribution of membrane proteins have been described, but the signals and components required for the insertion of plastidic ß-barrel-type proteins into the outer membrane are largely unknown. The discovery of common principles is difficult, as only a few plastidic ß-barrel proteins exist. Here, we provide evidence that the plastidic outer envelope ß-barrel proteins OEP21, OEP24, and OEP37 from pea (Pisum sativum) and Arabidopsis thaliana contain information defining the topology of the protein. The information required for the translocation of pea proteins across the outer envelope membrane is present within the six N-terminal ß-strands. This process requires the action of translocon of the outer chloroplast (TOC) membrane. After translocation into the intermembrane space, ß-barrel proteins interact with TOC75-V, as exemplified by OEP37 and P39, and are integrated into the membrane. The membrane insertion of plastidic ß-barrel proteins is affected by mutation of the last ß-strand, suggesting that this strand contributes to the insertion signal. These findings shed light on the elements and complexes involved in plastidic ß-barrel protein import.
