Researcher Alexander Mühleip, from Amunts lab, used the single-cell photosynthetic organism Euglena gracilis, which belongs to a phylum that also includes human parasites, to extract the mitochondrial ...

High-resolution cryo-EM analysis of the yeast ATP synthase in a lipid membrane. Science, 2018; eaas9699 DOI: 10.1126/science.aas9699 ...

Despite ATP's central role, the structure of the enzyme generating ATP, F1Fo-ATP synthase, in mammals, including humans, has not been known so far. Now, scientists report the first complete ...

ATP synthase is a universal molecular machine for energy conversion. By coupling to cellular respiration in mitochondria, it catalyzes conversion of chemical energy of cells. Mitochondrial ATP ...
