Mitochondrial matrix protein LETMD1 maintains thermogenic capacity of brown adipose tissue in male mice
Abstract Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has abundant mitochondria with the unique capability of generating heat via uncoupled respiration. Mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) is activated in BAT during cold stress and dissipates mitochondrial proton motive force generated by the electron transport...
