Each year, about 1,000 to 4,000 children in the United States are born with a mitochondrial disease. Many of these diseases are tied to a deficiency in ATP synthase thought to be triggered by ...
"The ATP synthase protein complex consists of a spinning rotor driven by the back transport of protons into the mitochondrial matrix. This part is connected to the enzyme's catalytic head by a stalk, ...
Mitochondria play a central role in cellular energy metabolism by converting nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through oxidative phosphorylation. Beyond energy production, these organelles ...

Yeast enzyme helps human cells beat mitochondrial defects
Mitochondrial diseases are severe, often untreatable, and they leave human cells unable to grow normally without outside help. A new study published in Nature Metabolism now shows that a single gene ...
Recently, a research team led by Professor Hongzhe SUN from the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, The University of Hong Kong, has published a paper in Nature Communications. The ...
Cell biologist Karin Busch has investigated changes in the ‘power plants’ of ageing heart muscle cells Prof. Karin Busch researches the bioenergetics of cells, i.e. the processes of energy conversion ...
