In a followup with @longzhou88.bsky.social and Yue Liu we move from molecular mechanism to membrane architecture. A giant ETC-ATP synthase assembly containing 10 ATP synthases and 6 respiratory complexes builds long-range periodic OXPHOS arrays on native cristae langtaosha.org.cn/lts/en/prepr... 1/4

65 years after Peter Mitchell’s chemiosmotic theory, we report an association between ATP synthase and the electron transport chain. In the preprint led by @longzhou88.bsky.social, we describe a large supercomplex and show how the supramolecular organization contribute to oxidative phosphorylation 🧵
