A collaborative study from the University of Cologne has uncovered how a key mitochondrial protein, AIFM1 (Apoptosis-Inducing ...

Typically, in mitochondria that can make ATP, the inner membrane of the mitochondria forms intricate folded structures called ...

Mitochondria are often called the powerhouses of the cell. ... Most ATP is produced in mitochondria through a series of reactions, known as the citric acid cycle or the Krebs cycle.

1. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. Perhaps the most well-known function of mitochondria is the production of ATP, the energy currency of cells. What is ATP? ATP is the source of energy for ...

Typically, in mitochondria that can make ATP, the inner membrane of the mitochondria forms intricate folded structures called cristae, which are often visible in the mitochondria shown in textbooks.

Breast cancer, particularly triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality due to ...

Moving toward clinical development, the researchers demonstrated efficient delivery of mRNA mitochondrial base editors using ...

The finding that SARS-CoV-2 shuts down ATP production in mitochondria of cells is surprising. A review from 2022 of viral effects on mitochondria makes no mention of anything similar.

Mitochondria organelles came from primordial bacterial endosymbionts and still preserve distinct genes for important functions like making ATP. To speed the emerging therapeutic research into the ...

Traditionally referred to as the powerhouses of cells, mitochondria play a vital role in the conversion of food into energy for biological processes in cell biology. However, in recent years, a ...
