Origins and consequences of mitochondrial variation in vertebrate muscle.

Abstract excerpt

This review addresses the mechanisms by which mitochondrial structure and function are regulated, with a focus on vertebrate muscle. We consider the adaptive remodeling that arises during physiological transitions such as differentiation, development, and contractile activity. Parallels are drawn between such phenotypic changes and the pattern of change arising over evolutionary time, as suggested by interspecies...
