Assessing the function of the alternative electron transport chain in the Cryptosporidium parvum mitosome [PDF]
mBioCryptosporidium 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
