Central component of the receptor complex responsible for the recognition and translocation of cytosolically synthesized mitochondrial preproteins. Together with TOM20 functions as the transit peptide receptor at the surface of the mitochondrion outer membrane and facilitates the movement of preproteins into the translocation pore.

The mitochondrial protein translocase (MPT) family, which brings nuclearly encoded preproteins into mitochondria, is very complex with 19 currently identified protein constituents.These proteins include several chaperone proteins, four proteins of the outer membrane translocase (Tom) import receptor, five proteins of the Tom channel complex, five proteins of the inner membrane translocase (Tim) and three "motor" proteins. This family is specific for the Tom22 proteins [Transport and binding proteins, Amino acids, peptides and amines]. Length = 145
The mitochondrial protein translocase family, which is responsible for movement of nuclear encoded pre-proteins into mitochondria, is very complex with at least 19 components. These proteins include several chaperone proteins, four proteins of the outer membrane translocase (Tom) import receptor, five proteins of the Tom channel complex, five proteins of the inner membrane translocase (Tim) and three "motor" proteins. This family represents the Tom22 proteins. The N terminal region of Tom22 has been shown to have chaperone-like activity, and the C terminal region faces the intermembrane face. Length = 136
