protein import into mitochondrial inner membrane

id: GO:0045039
name: protein import into mitochondrial inner membrane
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: The process comprising the import of proteins into the mitochondrion from outside the organelle and their insertion into the mitochondrial inner membrane. The translocase of the outer membrane complex mediates the passage of these proteins across the outer membrane, after which they are guided by either of two inner membrane translocase complexes into their final destination in the inner membrane.
