[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] HK II is bound to the mitochondrion by electrostatic bonds between a peptide (short-length protein) extending from HK II and a peptide extending from a mitochondrial membrane pore protein known as the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC).
The price of energy While scientists have theorized for at least three decades that mitochondria might be the basis for aging, renewed interest has come from the growing realization that a mitochondrion is more than just a cellular furnace.
[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] You have hundreds of mitochondria per cell and dozens of strands of mitochondrial DNA per mitochondrion.
