Dr. Craig Thompson of MSK’s Sloan Kettering Institute is the senior author of a new paper, published in ‘Nature,’ that shows how mitochondria form two variants.
This discovery represents a paradigm shift in our understanding of mitochondrial biology. The identification of this novel mitochondrial variant with its exceptional energy production potential opens doors for further research into optimizing cellular energy metabolism and developing new therapeutic strategies.
