Protonic Capacitor Bioenergetics: Why Mitochondria Develop Cristae?

Melatonin, mitochondria, and cellular bioenergetics.

Aerobic cells use oxygen for the production of 90-95% of the total amount of ATP that they use. This amounts to about 40 kg ATP/day in an adult human. The synthesis of ATP via the mitochondrial respiratory chain is the result of electron transport across the electron transport chain coupled to oxidative phosphorylation. Although ideally all the oxygen should be reduced to water by a four-electr...

Mitochondria: Organization of Respiratory Chain Complexes Becomes Cristae-lized

For over 100 years mitochondria have been known for their distinctive morphology featuring elaborately folded cristae, and their role as 'the powerhouse of the cell'. New research shows that these two characteristics are more dependent on each other than previously thought.
