Determinants of photochemical characteristics of the photosynthetic electron transport chain of maize [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionThe photosynthetic electron transport chain (ETC) is the bridge that links energy harvesting during the photophysical reactions at one end and energy consumption during the biochemical reactions at the other.

Vitamin K2 in Electron Transport System: Are Enzymes Involved in Vitamin K2 Biosynthesis Promising Drug Targets?

Molecules, 2010
Aerobic and anaerobic respiratory systemsallow cells to transport the electrons to terminal electron acceptors. The quinone (ubiquinone or menaquinone) pool is central to the electron transport chain. In the majority of Gram-positive bacteria, vitamin K2

Endurance exercise training in pulmonary hypertension increases skeletal muscle electron transport chain supercomplex assembly

Pulmonary Circulation, 2020
Pulmonary hypertension is associated with pronounced exercise intolerance (decreased V ċ O 2 max) that can significantly impact quality of life. The cause of exercise intolerance in pulmonary hypertension remains unclear. Mitochondrial supercomplexes are
