Function

SAM35_YEAST Essential component of the mitochondrial outer membrane sorting assembly machinery (SAM or TOB) complex, which is required for the sorting of proteins with complicated topology, such as beta-barrel proteins, to the mitochondrial outer membrane after import by the TOM complex.[1] [2]
