Each year, about 1,000 to 4,000 children in the United States are born with a mitochondrial disease. Many of these diseases are tied to a deficiency in ATP synthase thought to be triggered by ...

Bonn, January 10, 2023 - Scientists led by Prof. Thomas Becker, Director of the Institute of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University Hospital Bonn (UKB), have gained new insights into the ...

Mycoplasmas, including bacteria that cause pneumonia in humans, are generally nonmotile, but Mycoplasma mobile, as the species name suggests, has been found in the gills of fish and seems to move by ...

Scientists have solved the structure of mitochondrial ATP synthase, an enzyme that makes ATP, adenosine triphosphate, the major energy source of cells. A team of scientists headed by Rosalind Franklin ...

A collaborative effort led by Stuti Sharma, PhD, Assistant Professor in the Department of Biochemistry & Cell Biology at Stony Brook University, resulted in a promising study toward a better ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 118, No. 8 (February 23, 2021), pp. 1-9 (9 pages) The ATP synthase complexes in mitochondria make the ATP required ...

The mitochondrial ATP synthase is energy-converting macromolecular machine that uses the electrochemical potential across the bioenergetic membrane called cristae. This potential is maintained via a ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract ATP is the universal energy currency of living cells, and the majority of it is synthesized by the F1 F0 ATP synthase. Inhibitors of this ...
