Mitochondrial matrix-localized p53 participates in degradation of mitochondrial RNAs.
Mitochondrion(2021)
摘要
Mitochondrial RNA degradation plays an important role in maintenance of the mitochondria genetic integrity. Mitochondrial localization of p53 was observed in non-stressed and stressed cells. p53, as an RNA-binding protein, exerts 3'→5' exoribonuclease activity. The data suggest that in non-stressed cells, mitochondrial matrix-localized p53, with exoribonuclease activity, may play a housekeeping positive role. p53, through restriction the formation of new RNA/DNA hybrid and processing R-loop, might serve as mitochondrial R-loop suppressor. Conversely, stress-induced matrix-p53 decreases the amount of mitochondrial single-stranded RNA transcripts (including polyA- and non-polyA RNAs), thereby leading to the decline in the amount of mitochondria-encoded oxidative phosphorylation components.
