Summary

Mitochondrial phosphorylation is abundant and dynamic, yet its regulation and contribution to organellar function is poorly understood. To address this, we coupled quantitative phosphoproteomics with classic biochemistry to study the mitochondrial phosphatase Ptc7p. We found that Ptc7p deletion perturbs mitochondrial phosphorylation, partially inactivates citrate synthase, and decreases organellar function.
