Mitochondria contain the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC), or a series of protein complexes in which electrons pass through and produce ATP, or energy, for the cell. Mitochondrial ETC ...

A team of Chinese scientists has used targeted gene editing to develop rice that produces coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a vital ...

Mitochondria, often seen as cellular powerhouses, play a surprising role in immune regulation. Researchers found that ...

Unlike humans, who produce CoQ10 with a side chain of 10 isoprene units (C50), cereal crops such as rice and wheat, as well ...

Figure 1: Mitochondrial involvement in cell death ... It contains the protein complexes from the electron transport chain, the ATP synthase and the adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT).

We used chemicals to induce mitochondrial toxicity ... of the cell because it houses this machinery called the electron transport chain. There’s literally hundreds of different genes that ...

Mitochondria, often described as cellular power plants, generate energy through a sequence called the electron transport chain, comprising various protein complexes. This new research shows that ...
