An In Silico Model Of The Alternative Oxidase
ABSTRACT The alternative oxidase (AOX) is a member of the family of di-iron proteins, in which the catalytic centre consists of a pair of iron atoms ligated by carboxylate (aspartate and glutamate) and histidine ligands within a four helix bundle.

A revised model of the active site of alternative oxidase
The plant mitochondrial protein alternative oxidase catalyses dioxygen dependent ubiquinol oxidation to yield ubiquinone and water. A structure of this protein has previously been proposed based on an assumed structural homology to the di‐iron carboxylate family of proteins.

High‐Performance Bio‐Glue From the Berries of a Parasitic Plant
We report a fully bio‐based adhesive derived primarily from a (poly)saccharide extract obtained from the berries of the hemi‐parasitic plant mistletoe (Viscum album), supplemented with tannic and malic acid without any further chemical functionalization.

Cryptosporidium parvum and C. hominis possess a remanent mitochondrion called the mitosome, which lacks DNA, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, a conventional electron transport chain, and ATP synthesis. The mitosome retains ubiquinone and iron-sulfur cluster

The D-channel of cytochrome oxidase: An alternative view
The D-pathway in A-type cytochrome c oxidases conducts protons from a conserved aspartate on the negatively charged N-side of the membrane to a conserved glutamic acid at about the middle of the membrane dielectric. Extensive work in the past has indicated that all four protons pumped across the membrane on reduction of O(2) to water are transferred ...

PEG‐guided mitochondrial surface engineering supports structural stabilization and controlled presentation of cell‐penetrating peptides. CPP–PEG‐modified mitochondria exhibit enhanced cellular uptake and uptake‐associated respiratory modulation, providing a proof‐of‐concept framework for modular organelle engineering and future bioenergetic modulation ...
