Robust membrane proteostasis networks are essential for cells to withstand proteotoxic stress arising from environmental insult and intrinsic errors in protein production (Labbadia and Morimoto, 2015; Hegde and Zavodszky, 2019). Failures in mitochondrial membrane proteostasis are associated with cancer, aging, and a range of cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases (Wallace et al., 2010; Martin, 2012; Gustafsson and Gottlieb, 2007). As a result, mitochondria possess numerous pathways to maintain proteostasis (Avci and Lemberg, 2015; Shi et al., 2016; Weidberg and Amon, 2018; Shpilka and Haynes, 2018; Quirós et al., 2016; Sorrentino et al., 2017). Mitochondrial Sorting of Proteins 1 (Msp1) is a membrane anchored AAA ATPase that extracts proteins from the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) (Chen et al., 2014; Okreglak and Walter, 2014). In the past few years, several papers have addressed various aspects of Msp1 function. Here, we summarize these recent advances to build a basic model for how Msp1 maintains mitochondrial membrane proteostasis while also highlighting outstanding questions in the field.
