Function of the alternative electron transport chain in the <i>Cryptosporidium parvum</i> mitosome

2024-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Cryptosporidium parvum and C. hominis possess a remanent mitochondrion called the mitosome, which lacks DNA, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, a conventional electron transport chain, and ATP synthesis. The mitosome retains ubiquinone and iron sulfur cluster biosynthesis pathways, both of which require protein import that relies on the membrane potential. It was previously proposed that the membrane potential is gener...
