[35S]Methionine-labeling in the presence of rhodamine 6G demonstrated that SCAD-YH2065 was synthesized as a 44-kD precursor and imported normally into mitochondria, as were the normal SCAD and two other variant SCADs, excluding the possibility that SCAD-YH2065 is a truncated precursor that cannot be imported into mitochondria.
