Abstract
Oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) occurs through and across the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM). Mitochondrial membranes contain a distinct lipid composition, aided by lipid biosynthetic machinery localized in the IMM and class-specific lipid transporters that limit lipid traffic in and out of mitochondria. This unique lipid composition appears to be essential for functions of mitochondria, particularly OXPHOS, by its effects on direct lipid-to-protein interactions, membrane properties, and cristae ultrastructure. This review highlights the biological significance of mitochondrial lipids, with a particular spotlight on the role of lipids in mitochondrial bioenergetics. We describe pathways for the biosynthesis of mitochondrial lipids and provide evidence for their roles in physiology, their implications in human disease, and the mechanisms by which they regulate mitochondrial bioenergetics.
期刊介绍:
Analytical Chemistry, a peer-reviewed research journal, focuses on disseminating new and original knowledge across all branches of analytical chemistry. Fundamental articles may explore general principles of chemical measurement science and need not directly address existing or potential analytical methodology. They can be entirely theoretical or report experimental results. Contributions may cover various phases of analytical operations, including sampling, bioanalysis, electrochemistry, mass spectrometry, microscale and nanoscale systems, environmental analysis, separations, spectroscopy, chemical reactions and selectivity, instrumentation, imaging, surface analysis, and data processing. Papers discussing known analytical methods should present a significant, original application of the method, a notable improvement, or results on an important analyte.
