Structural insight into the SAM-mediated assembly of the mitochondrial TOM core complex

β barrel outer membrane proteins (β-OMPs) play vital roles in mitochondria, chloroplasts, and Gram-negative bacteria. Evolutionarily conserved complexes such as the mitochondrial sorting and assembly machinery (SAM) mediate the assembly of β-OMPs. We investigated the SAM-mediated assembly of the translocase of the outer membrane (TOM) core complex. Cryo–electron microscopy structures of SAM–fully folded Tom40 and the SAM-Tom40/Tom5/Tom6 complexes at ~3-angstrom resolution reveal that Sam37 stabilizes the mature Tom40 mainly through electrostatic interactions, thus facilitating subsequent TOM assembly. These results support the β barrel switching model and provide structural insights into the assembly and release of β barrel complexes.
