Na <sup>+</sup> /H <sup>+</sup> antiporter activity by respiratory complex I controls mitochondrial Δψ and is impaired in LHON disease
2023-05-30
Abstract excerpt
The mitochondrial electron transport chain (mETC) converts the energy of substrate oxidation into a H + electrochemical gradient (Δp), which is composed by an inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM) potential (ΔΨmt) and a pH gradient (ΔpH). So far, ΔΨmt has been assumed to be composed exclusively by H + . Mitochondrial Ca 2+ and Na + homeostasis, which are essential for cellular function, are controlled by exchange...
