YidC is a highly conserved membrane protein integral to bacterial inner membranes, playing a pivotal role in the insertion, folding, and assembly of membrane proteins. Identified initially in *Escherichia coli*, YidC belongs to the *insertase* family, functioning either independently or in concert with the Sec translocon to facilitate the biogenesis of α-helical membrane proteins. Its homologs, such as Oxa1 in mitochondrial inner membranes and Alb3 in chloroplasts, underscore its evolutionary significance in membrane protein biogenesis across prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems.
YidC operates through a unique mechanism. Unlike the Sec system, which primarily handles unfolded polypeptide chains, YidC interacts with nascent membrane proteins during or after their translocation, aiding in their lateral integration into the lipid bilayer. Structural studies reveal that YidC possesses six transmembrane helices, with a large hydrophilic domain protruding into the cytoplasm. This charged region likely mediates substrate recognition and chaperoning, while its transmembrane groove stabilizes hydrophobic segments of client proteins. Notably, YidC is essential for the assembly of energy-transducing complexes (e.g., ATP synthase) and virulence factors in pathogenic bacteria, linking its function to cellular energetics and microbial pathogenicity.
Research on YidC has expanded due to its potential as a therapeutic target. Inhibitors disrupting YidC could combat antibiotic-resistant pathogens by impairing membrane protein biogenesis. Additionally, YidC serves as a model system to study membrane protein insertion mechanisms, offering insights into diseases linked to defective protein folding, such as neurodegenerative disorders. Despite progress, key questions remain about its substrate specificity, interplay with other translocases, and structural dynamics during membrane protein assembly. Advances in cryo-EM and single-molecule techniques continue to unravel these mysteries, solidifying YidC's role as a cornerstone in membrane biology.
