"petite" yeast mutants have mitochondria without a functional electron transport chain, yet they maintain a potential across the inner mitochondrial membrane. what protein might be involved in this process?

TIM is the protein that might be involved with this process. This type of protein is a protein of the transmembrane immunoglobulin and mucin domain. This type of protein is expressed by multiple cell types within the immune systems of rodents and humans.
