Mitochondria convert the energy stored in nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through oxidative phosphorylation, a process driven by the chemiosmotic generation of a proton gradient across the ...

Researchers have developed experimental compounds that make cells burn more calories by subtly tweaking how mitochondria produce energy. Older versions of these chemicals were once used for weight ...

Synaptic transmission is an energy hog. It requires neurons to tap ATP reserves to respond to incoming signals. How do they pull this off, thousands to millions of times per day? A new study ...
