Abstract: Diseases involving mitochondrial defects usually manifest themselves in highenergy, post-mitotic tissues such as brain, retina, skeletal and cardiac muscle and frequently cause deficiencies in mitochondrial bioenergetics1, 2. We have developed a scalable procedure to produce recombinant human mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) 3-5 modified with an N-terminal protein transduction domain (PTD)6 and mitochondrial localization signal (MLS) that allow it to cross membranes and enter mitochondria through its βmitochondrial transduction domainβ (MTD,=PTD+MLS). In vitro studies in a classic mitochondrial disease cell model demonstrated that Alexa488-labeled MTD-TFAM rapidly entered the mitochondrial compartment. MTD-TFAM treatment of these cell lines reversibly increased oxygen consumption (respiration) rates 3-fold, levels of respiratory proteins and mitochondrial gene expression. In vivo results demonstrated that respiration increased to lesser degrees in mitochondria from tissues of mice injected with MTD-TFAM. MTD-TFAM can alter mitochondrial bioenergetics and holds promise for treatment of mitochondrial diseases involving deficiencies of energy production. β’ Keywords: TFAM, Respiration, Mitochondrial gene expression, Respiratory proteins
