Matrix-targeting sequences

Located at the N-terminus

Usually 20–50 amino acids in length

Rich in hydrophobic amino acids, positively charged basic amino acids (arginine & lysine), and hydroxylated ones (serine and threonine)

Amphipathicity of matrix-targeting sequences is critical to their function
