Disorders related to mitochondrial membranes: pathology of the respiratory chain and neurodegeneration.

Abstract excerpt

Faulty oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) is observed in a number of mitochondrial disorders, and may be associated with single or multiple defects of the five complexes of the respiratory chain. From the genetic standpoint, the respiratory chain is unique as it is formed by means of the complementation of two separate genetic systems: the nuclear genome and the mitochondrial genome. The nuclear genome encodes...
