Cox1 mutation abrogates need for Cox23 in cytochrome c oxidase biogenesis [PDF]
Cox23 is a known conserved assembly factor for cytochrome c oxidase, although its role in cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) biogenesis remains unresolved. To gain additional insights into its role, we isolated spontaneous suppressors of the respiratory growth ...

Exosome profile and composite indices reflect immune exhaustion in periodontitis [PDF]
Introduction Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles that regulate immune responses, inflammation, and tissue homeostasis. While several exosomal molecules have been investigated individually in periodontitis, a functional characterization based on ...

In vitro reconstitution reveals major differences between human and bacterial cytochrome c synthases
Cytochromes c are ubiquitous heme proteins in mitochondria and bacteria, all possessing a CXXCH (CysXxxXxxCysHis) motif with covalently attached heme. We describe the first in vitro reconstitution of cytochrome c biogenesis using purified mitochondrial ...

Selenite stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis signaling and enhances mitochondrial functional performance in murine hippocampal neuronal cells. [PDF]
Supplementation of selenium has been shown to protect cells against free radical mediated cell damage. The objectives of this study are to examine whether supplementation of selenium stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis signaling pathways and whether ...

Bacterial cytochromes c biogenesis. [PDF]
We report the primary sequence analyses of two loci, hel and ccl, whose gene products are required specifically for the biogenesis of c-type cytochromes in the Gram-negative photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter capsulatus. Genetic and molecular analyses show that the hel locus contains at least four genes, helA, helB, helC, and orf52, and the ccl locus

Brain Region Specificity of Mitochondrial Biogenesis and Bioenergetics Response to Nrf2 Knockdown: A Comparison Among Hippocampus, Prefrontal Cortex and Amygdala of Male Rat Brain [PDF]
Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) has been identified as the well-known coordinator of intracellular antioxidant defense system. Herein, we aimed to evaluate the effects of Nrf2 silencing on mitochondrial biogenesis markers peroxisome ...

Reperfusion promotes mitochondrial biogenesis following focal cerebral ischemia in rats. [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Reperfusion after transient cerebral ischemia causes severe damage to mitochondria; however, little is known regarding the continuous change in mitochondrial biogenesis during reperfusion.
