BACKGROUND: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is substantially influenced by genetic factors. Sarcomere function is intricately associated with other organelles, particularly the reciprocal regulation ...

The interaction of Mia40 with Erv1/ALR is central to the oxidative protein folding in the intermembrane space of mitochondria (IMS) as Erv1/ALR oxidizes reduced Mia40 to restore its functional state.

In biology classes from high school through university, I learned that mitochondria are little objects that reside within ...

My search for answers to these stupendously ambitious questions led me, it now seems inexorably, to mitochondria. This idea ...

Cardiac mitochondria generate 90% of the ATP in the heart, but their importance is not restricted to bioenergetics, as they also act as a metabolic way station, which contributes to the balance ...
