What is the function of mitochondrial networks? A theoretical assessment of hypotheses and proposal for future research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Mitochondria can change their shape from discrete isolated organelles to a large continuous reticulum. The cellular advantages underlying these fused networks are still incompletely understood.

3-D Ultrastructure of O. tauri: Electron Cryotomography of an Entire Eukaryotic Cell [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The hallmark of eukaryotic cells is their segregation of key biological functions into discrete, membrane-bound organelles. Creating accurate models of their ultrastructural complexity has been difficult in part because of the limited resolution of light

A patatin-like phospholipase is important for mitochondrial function in malaria parasites

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Plasmodium parasites rely on a functional electron transport chain (ETC) within their mitochondrion for proliferation, and compounds targeting mitochondrial functions are validated antimalarials.

Protein import into the endosymbiotic organelles of apicomplexan parasites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The organelles of endosymbiotic origin, plastids, and mitochondria, evolved through the serial acquisition of endosymbionts by a host cell. These events were accompanied by gene transfer from the symbionts to the host, resulting in most of the organellar

Acute Succinate Administration Increases Oxidative Phosphorylation and Skeletal Muscle Explosive Strength via SUCNR1

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Endurance training and explosive strength training, with different contraction protein and energy metabolism adaptation in skeletal muscle, are both beneficial for physical function and quality of life.

BCKDH: the missing link in apicomplexan mitochondrial metabolism is required for full virulence of Toxoplasma gondii and Plasmodium berghei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
While the apicomplexan parasites Plasmodium falciparum and Toxoplasma gondii are thought to primarily depend on glycolysis for ATP synthesis, recent studies have shown that they can fully catabolize glucose in a canonical TCA cycle.

A nonmitochondrial hydrogen production in Naegleria gruberi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Naegleria gruberi is a free-living heterotrophic aerobic amoeba well known for its ability to transform from an amoeba to a flagellate form. The genome of N.

Pervasive within-Mitochondrion Single-Nucleotide Variant Heteroplasmy as Revealed by Single-Mitochondrion Sequencing

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Summary: A number of mitochondrial diseases arise from single-nucleotide variant (SNV) accumulation in multiple mitochondria. Here, we present a method for identification of variants present at the single-mitochondrion level in individual mouse and human

Formation of cristae and crista junctions in mitochondria depends on antagonism between Fcj1 and Su e/g [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Crista junctions (CJs) are important for mitochondrial organization and function, but the molecular basis of their formation and architecture is obscure.

Anti-Trypanosoma cruzi action of a new benzofuran derivative based on amiodarone structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Chagas disease is a neglected tropical affection caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. There is no current effective treatment since the only two available drugs have a limited efficacy and produce side effects.
