Category:GO:0006628 ! obsolete mitochondrial translocation

This GO term has been obsoleted. Do not annotate to it.

id: GO:0006628
name: obsolete mitochondrial translocation
namespace: biological_process
def: "OBSOLETE. The translocation of proteins across the mitochondrial membrane. In the presence of a translocating chain, the outer membrane import machinery (MOM complex) and the inner membrane import machinery (MIM complex) form translocation contact sites as a part of the membrane preprotein import machinery." [PMID:7600576]
comment: This term was made obsolete because its definition was equivalent to that of the biological process term 'mitochondrial matrix protein import ; GO:0030150' while the mitochondrial translocation has a broader meaning; this led to mis-annotation.
synonym: "mitochondrial translocation" EXACT []
is_obsolete: true
consider: GO:0006626 ! protein targeting to mitochondrion
