Abstract: The 'primary respiratory complexes' (CI to CIV) comprise the machinery for transfer of electrons from NADH and succinate to oxygen as described in an extensive series of publications by the laboratory of Hatefi (see Hatefi 1962 J Biol Chem-XLII). Complex V (CV) is the ATP synthase of the phosphorylation system. Additional respiratory complexes of the membrane-bound electron transfer system, such as CETF, CGpDH, and choline dehydrogenase, transfer electrons through the Q-junction to oxygen (Gnaiger 2009).

Architecture of the respiratory system
The different localizations and functions of the respiratory complexes explain the architecture of the respiratory system. Respiratory complexes of the electron transfer system tansfer electrons to reduce oxygen to water in aerobic respiration, whereas CV ATP synthase is part of the phosphorylation system. Proton translocation couples the electron transfer system to the phosphorylation system.
Membrane-spanning respiratory complexes function as proton pumps (in most mitochondria CI, CIII, CIV and CV; in yeast mitochondria CIII, CIV and CV). Respiratory complexes bound to one side of the inner mt-membrane and CI transfer electrons to the Q-junction which separates upstream and downstream segments of the electron transfer system. Electron transfer complexes localized to the inner face of the inner mt-membrane are CII and CETF, and a respiratory complex localized to the outer face of the inner mt-membrane is CGpDH.
Primary complexes and supercomplexes
The 'primary complexes' (CI to CIV) comprise the machinery for transfer of electrons from NADH and succinate to oxygen as described in an extensive series of publications by the laboratory of Hatefi (see Hatefi 1962 J Biol Chem-XLII). Secondary complexes (supercomplexes) and their activities have been described to be stable at repeated freezing, thawing, dilution, centrifugation, and storage at -2O ยฐC. The activity of supercomplexes is representative of electron transfer function in intact mitochondria activated by appropriate substrate combinations. Supercomplexes delineate very clearly the architecture of the respiratory system.
Whereas Hatefi et al described supercomplexes including CII, currently considered supercomplexes are restricted to CI, CIII and CIV (respirasome), CI and CIII, and CIII and CIV (Bianchi 2004 J Biol Chem, Lapuente-Brun 2013 Science).
