Complex I (NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase) is the largest multimeric enzyme complex of
the mitochondrial respiratory chain, which is responsible for electron transport and the …

The chapter provides a review of the state of art of the oxidative phosphorylation system in
mammalian mitochondria. The sections of the paper deal with:(i) the respiratory chain as a …

Genome sequences of diverse free-living protists are essential for understanding eukaryotic
evolution and molecular and cell biology. The free-living amoeboflagellate Naegleria …

Virtually every mammalian cell contains mitochondria. These double-membrane organelles
continuously change shape and position and contain the complete metabolic machinery for …

Mitochondria are essential for cellular bioenergetics by way of energy production in the form
of ATP through the process of oxidative phosphorylation. This crucial task is executed by five …

The enzymatic complexes of the mitochondrial respiratory chain have been extensively
investigated in their structural and functional properties. A clear distinction is possible today …

The NADH dehydrogenase complex (complex I) of the respiratory chain has unique features
in plants. It is the main entrance site for electrons into the respiratory electron transfer chain …

Mitochondrial disorders are clinical syndromes associated with abnormalities of the
oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) system, the main responsible for the production of …

Parasitism is a successful survival strategy across all kingdoms and has evolved repeatedly
in angiosperms. Parasitic plants obtain nutrients from other plants and some are agricultural …

The mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase complex (complex I) of the respiratory chain has
several remarkable features in plants:(i) particularly many of its subunits are encoded by the …
