Hola, mis amigos de la ciencia! This week, researchers reported that hominins strode bipedally across Europe 500,000 years earlier than previously known. By making digital endocasts of bird skulls, ...

Rotenone, an inhibitor of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, prevented ROS generation and apoptosis in response to edelfosine in S cerevisiae. α-Tocopherol abrogated the edelfosine ...

Mitochondria contain the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC), or a series of protein complexes in which electrons pass through and produce ATP, or energy, for the cell. Mitochondrial ETC ...
