Electron Transport Chain Complex II Regulates Steroid Metabolism

iScience, 2020
Summary: The first steroidogenic enzyme, cytochrome P450-side-chain-cleavage (SCC), requires electron transport chain (ETC) complexes III and IV to initiate steroid metabolic processes for mammalian survival.

Resonant electron transmission through a finite quantum spin chain [PDF]

, 2001
Electron transport in a finite one dimensional quantum spin chain (with ferromagnetic exchange) is studied within an $s-d$ exchange Hamiltonian. Spin transfer coefficients strongly depend on the sign of the $s-d$ exchange constant.

Regulation and functional role of the electron transport chain supercomplexes [PDF]

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2021
Mitochondria are one of the most exhaustively investigated organelles in the cell and most attention has been paid to the components of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) in the last 100 years. The ETC collects electrons from NADH or FADH2 and transfers them through a series of electron carriers within multiprotein respiratory complexes ...

Yeast model uncovers dual roles of mitochondria in action of artemisinin. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2005
Artemisinins, derived from the wormwood herb Artemisia annua, are the most potent antimalarial drugs currently available. Despite extensive research, the exact mode of action of artemisinins has not been established.

Structure of a bacterial cell surface decaheme electron conduit [PDF]

, 2011
Some bacterial species are able to utilize extracellular mineral forms of iron and manganese as respiratory electron acceptors. In Shewanella oneidensis this involves decaheme cytochromes that are located on the bacterial cell surface at the termini of ...
