Global kinome profiling reveals DYRK1A as critical activator of the human mitochondrial import machinery

Mitochondrial protein import is mediated by the translocase of the outer membrane (TOM), through which nearly all precursors traverse. Here, the authors perform global in vitro kinome profiling and by this identify that DYRK1A phosphorylates TOM70 and promotes import.
