Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial Ca2+ levels are regulated to balance stimulating respiration against the harm of Ca2+ overload. Contributing to this balance, the main channel transporting Ca2+ into the matrix, the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter, can incorporate a dominant-negative subunit (MCUB). MCUB is homologous to the pore-forming subunit MCU, but when present in the pore-lining tetramer, inhibits Ca2+ transport. Here, using...
