Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, skunk cabbage (Symplocarpus renifolius), was used to uncover the mechanism of respiration control and temperature-sensing mechanisms during homeothermic heat-production. Our data showed that mitochondria from thermogenic spadices possess a specific temperature-dependent respiration, and that thermodynamic analyses could be a useful tool to determine the overall activation energy of respiration control under different temperatures.
