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.

Rhodoquinone carries electrons in the mammalian electron transport chain. [PDF]
Ubiquinone (UQ), the only known electron carrier in the mammalian electron transport chain (ETC), preferentially delivers electrons to the terminal electron acceptor oxygen (O2). In hypoxia, ubiquinol (UQH2) diverts these electrons onto fumarate instead.

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

The role of the electron transport chain in immunity [PDF]
Abstract The electron transport chain (ETC) couples oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) with ATP synthase to drive the generation of ATP. In immune cells, research surrounding the ETC has drifted away from bioenergetics since the discovery of cytochrome c (Cyt

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

ETMB-RBF: discrimination of metal-binding sites in electron transporters based on RBF networks with PSSM profiles and significant amino acid pairs. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cellular respiration is the process by which cells obtain energy from glucose and is a very important biological process in living cell. As cells do cellular respiration, they need a pathway to store and transport electrons, the electron ...
