Mitochondrial energy conversion supplies cellular energy but can also provide heat in brown adipose tissue (BAT). In a recent study, Shin and Latorre-Muro et al. show that respiratory supercomplexes in BAT are remodeled during cold to provide a tighter coupling, revealing a novel, physiologically important role for these supramolecular assemblies.
线粒体能量转换为细胞提供能量,但在棕色脂肪组织(BAT)中也能产生热量。在最近的一项研究中,Shin和Latorre-Muro等人表明,棕色脂肪组织中的呼吸超复合物在寒冷时会发生重塑,以实现更紧密的偶联,揭示了这些超分子组装体在生理上的一个新的重要作用。
