ABOUT

This animation from Alexey Amunts laboratory and MadMicrobe Studios shows the intricate inner architecture of mitochondria and how it helps to produce energy. The video describes the organisation of electron transport complexes and the ATP synthase that results in membrane curvature induction for efficient production of ATP to fuel cells. This animated description is based on the latest scientific research published in the journal Nature, 'Structural basis of mitochondrial membrane bending by the I–II–III2–IV2 supercomplex.'
