Membrane-bound ET pathway

Description

The membrane-bound electron transfer system (mETS) consists in mitochondria mainly of respiratory complexes CI, CII, electron transferring flavoprotein complex (CETF), glycerophosphate dehydrogenase complex (CGpDH), and choline dehydrogenase, with convergent electron flow at the Q-junction (Coenzyme Q), and the two downstream respiratory complexes connected by cytochrome c, CIII and CIV, with oxygen as the final electron acceptor. The mETS is the terminal (downstream) module of the mitochondrial ETS and can be isoled from the ETS in submitochondrial particles (SmtP).

Abbreviation: mETS
