1. Heme-copper oxidases and nitric oxide : Reaction mechanisms and supercomplex formation
Sammanfattning : In the denitrification process where nitrate is stepwise reduced to nitrogen gas, the toxic molecule nitric oxide (NO) is formed as an intermediate. Nitric oxide is produced by the enzyme cd1 Nitrite reductase (cd1NiR) by reduction of nitrite and is later reduced to nitrous oxide by nitric oxide reductase (cNOR). LÄS MER
2. Respiration in Actinobacteria : Structure, function and inhibition of the III2IV2 supercomplex
Sammanfattning : The final step of aerobic respiration, oxidative phosphorylation, combines the activities of the electron transport chain and of ATP synthase. The electron transport chain is composed of membrane-bound energy transducers, which are organized in supramolecular assemblies known as respiratory supercomplexes. LÄS MER
3. Prokaryotic respiratory supercomplexes : Studies of interactions between complexes III and IV
Sammanfattning : Respiratory processes for cellular energy conversion are carried out by the membrane-associated enzymes of the electron transfer chain (ETC). In recent years there has been emerging data showing that the members of the ETC organize into higher-level assemblies called supercomplexes (SCs) whose functional relevance is not yet fully understood.

4. Structural characterisation of mitochondrial macromolecular complexes using cryo-EM : Mitoribosome biogenesis and respiratory chain supercomplex
Sammanfattning : Mitochondria, popularly known as powerhouse of the cell, contain specialised mitoribosomes that synthesise essential membrane proteins. These essential proteins are required to form enzyme complexes, which carry out the process of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). LÄS MER
5. Wiring Components of the Respiratory Chain : Modulation of the Respiratory Chain in Yeast and Bacteria
Sammanfattning : The enzyme complexes of the respiratory chain are organized in supramolecular assemblies, so-called respiratory supercomplexes. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, these supercomplexes consist of two copies of complex III (bc1 complex) and one or two copies of complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase, CytcO). LÄS MER
