protein processing involved in protein targeting to mitochondrion

Term ID

GO:0006627

Synonyms

mitochondrial processing
mitochondrial protein processing during import

Definition

The cleavage of peptide bonds in proteins, usually near the N terminus, contributing to the process of import into the mitochondrion. Several different peptidases mediate cleavage of proteins destined for different mitochondrial compartments. 12191769
