(A) Electron micrograph of a human cell section showing three mitochondria. (B) Scheme of the protein complexes that form the ETS, showing the mitochondrial membranes in blue and red; NADH ...

This is a colorized transmission electron micrograph of cellular mitochondria, which produce a small molecule called ATP. Inside cells, ATP serves as an energy source but released outside the cell ...

Researchers have identified the mitochondrial calcium uniporter as a critical protein in the strengthening of synaptic ...

An electron micrograph therefore provides an excellent ... molecules and smaller cells — and scientists believe that mitochondria and chloroplasts arose as a result of this process.

Its structure, as revealed by the electron microscope, mirrors its function It is the mitochondrion, a small body which appears to play a central role in the oxidation of foodstuff.

Electron microscopy (EM) allowed us to look at the mitochondria and EV on an ultrastructural level, which is not possible with fluorescence microscopy. Using EM, we were able to assess the vesicle’s ...
