Protein phosphorylation in yeast mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
We describe the identification and submitochondrial localization of four protein kinases and of their target proteins in derepressed yeast mitochondria. The activity of one of the kinases depends on the presence of cyclic AMP (cAMP).

Mitochondria and Neurodegeneration

open access: yesBioscience Reports, 2007
Many lines of evidence suggest that mitochondria have a central role in ageing-related neurodegenerative diseases. However, despite the evidence of morphological, biochemical and molecular abnormalities in mitochondria in various tissues of patients with neurodegenerative disorders, the question “is mitochondrial dysfunction a necessary step in ...

Translocation and insertion of precursor proteins into isolated outer membranes of mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Nuclear-encoded proteins destined for mitochondria must cross the outer or both outer and inner membranes to reach their final sub- mitochondrial locations. While the inner membrane can translocate preproteins by itself, it is not known whether the outer

Mitochondria Revisited. Alternative Functions of Mitochondria

open access: yesBioscience Reports, 1997
This review explores the alternative functions of mitochondria inside the cell. In a general picture of mitochondrial functioning, the importance and uniqueness of these intrinsic functions make them irreplaceable by other intracellular compartments.

Mitochondria in cancer [PDF]

open access: yesOncogene, 2006
Prominent features of cancer cells include metabolic imbalances and enhanced resistance to mitochondrial apoptosis. The fact that tumors rely heavily on glycolysis to meet their metabolic demands has been recognized since the beginning of the twentieth century, yet a complete elucidation of the so-called Warburg effect has not been achieved.

Mitochondrial Maturation in Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Derived Cardiomyocytes

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2017
Human pluripotent stem cells derived cardiomyocytes (PSC-CMs) have been widely used for disease modeling, drug safety screening, and preclinical cell therapy to regenerate myocardium.

Preparation and Antioxidant Activities of Phenylethanoids from Dracocephalum heterophyllum

open access: yesSeparations, 2022
The health benefits of Dracocephalum heterophyllum are widely reported in traditional Tibetan medicines, but the reported chemical composition is limited, probably due to difficulties in separating and purifying compounds.

Targeting mitochondria by mitochondrial fusion, mitochondria-specific peptides and nanotechnology

open access: yes, 2013
This thesis was focused on mitochondria as an intracellular target for drug delivery by the reason that mitochondria are becoming of increasing interest in pharmaceutical and medical research due to their contribution to several diseases (Chapter 1).

Mitochondria and Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2016
Decades ago, Otto Warburg observed that cancers ferment glucose in the presence of oxygen, suggesting that defects in mitochondrial respiration may be the underlying cause of cancer. We now know that the genetic events that drive aberrant cancer cell proliferation also alter biochemical metabolism, including promoting aerobic glycolysis, but do not ...

Mitochondria in Neurodegeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Many neurodegenerative diseases demonstrate abnormal mitochondrial morphology and biochemical dysfunction. Alterations are often systemic rather than brain-limited. Mitochondrial dysfunction may arise as a consequence of abnormal mitochondrial DNA, mutated nuclear proteins that interact directly or indirectly with mitochondria, or through unknown ...
