RESUMEN
In the version of this article originally published, parts of Figure 5 were misaligned because of a shift during production. In a, one data point was outside of the graph border. In b, axes lines were not connected, and graph lines did not reach the data points. In c and d, the axes lines were not connected. In e and g, the axes lines were not connected, and error bars and columns were not aligned. Shown below are the original and corrected versions of Figure 5. The errors have been corrected in the PDF and HTML versions of the paper.
RESUMEN
The cytosolic accumulation of mitochondrial precursors is hazardous to cellular fitness and is associated with a number of diseases. However, it is not observed under physiological conditions. Individual mechanisms that allow cells to avoid cytosolic accumulation of mitochondrial precursors have recently been discovered, but their interplay and regulation remain elusive. Here, we show that cells rapidly launch a global transcriptional programme to restore cellular proteostasis after induction of a 'clogger' protein that reduces the number of available mitochondrial import sites. Cells upregulate the protein folding and proteolytic systems in the cytosol and downregulate both the cytosolic translation machinery and many mitochondrial metabolic enzymes, presumably to relieve the workload of the overstrained mitochondrial import system. We show that this transcriptional remodelling is a combination of a 'wideband' core response regulated by the transcription factors Hsf1 and Rpn4 and a unique mitoprotein-induced downregulation of the oxidative phosphorylation components, mediated by an inactivation of the HAP complex.
