Supramolecular Structure of the Mitochondrial Oxidative Phosphorylation System

Year: 2006

Type: review

Abstract: The protein complexes of the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation system were recently reported to form supramolecular assemblies termed respiratory supercomplexes or respirasomes. These supercomplexes are considered to be of great functional importance. Here we review new insights into supercomplex structure and physiology.
