Cytochrome c (cyt c) is a small soluble heme protein characterized by a relatively flexible
structure, particularly in the ferric form, such that it is able to sample a broad conformational …

Heme is a ubiquitous and essential iron containing metallo-organic cofactor required for
virtually all aerobic life. Heme synthesis is initiated and completed in mitochondria, followed …

Cellular iron homeostasis and mitochondrial iron homeostasis are interdependent.
Mitochondria must import iron to form iron–sulfur clusters and heme, and to incorporate …

For decades now, sperm cryopreservation has been a pillar of assisted reproduction in
animals as well as humans. Nevertheless, the success of cryopreservation varies across …

Engineering nanotraps to immobilize fragile enzymes provides new insights into designing
stable and sustainable biocatalysts. However, the trade-off between activity and stability …

Plant mitochondria play a major role during respiration by producing the ATP required for
metabolism and growth. ATP is produced during oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), a …

Currently, complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are available from all major land
plant lineages except ferns. Sequencing of fern mitogenomes could shed light on the major …

Mitochondria damage and apoptosis were found associated with sevoflurane induced
neurotoxicity in developing brains of rodent and neuro cell lines. The detailed upstream …

Mitochondria dysfunction, an enormous potential crisis, has attracted increasing attention.
Disturbed regulation of mitochondrial dynamics, the balance of mitochondrial fusion and …

There is remarkable variation in the rate at which genetic incompatibilities in molecular
interactions accumulate. In some cases, minor changes—even single-nucleotide …
