Mycofactocin and the mycobacterial electron transport chain [PDF]
In the bacterium M. smegmatis, an enzyme called MftG allows the cofactor mycofactocin to transfer electrons released during ethanol metabolism to the electron transport chain.

Melatonin and the electron transport chain
Melatonin protects the electron transport chain (ETC) in multiple ways. It reduces levels of ·NO by downregulating inducible and inhibiting neuronal nitric oxide synthases (iNOS, nNOS), thereby preventing excessive levels of peroxynitrite. Both ·NO and peroxynitrite-derived free radicals, such as ·NO2, hydroxyl (·OH) and carbonate radicals (CO3 ...

Dysfunctional Electron Transport Chain Assembly in COXPD8 [PDF]
Combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency type 8 (COXPD8) is an autosomal recessive mitochondrial disorder caused by a mutation of the nuclear encoded mitochondrial alanyl-tRNA synthetase gene (AARS2). Clinical manifestations of COXPD8 include lethal

Chemically Mediated Artificial Electron Transport Chain
Electron transport chains (ETCs) are ubiquitous in nearly all living systems. Replicating the complexity and control inherent in these multicomponent systems using ensembles of small molecules opens up promising avenues for molecular therapeutics, catalyst design, and the development of innovative energy conversion and storage systems. Here, we present
