Project description:Recent genomic studies revealed that mitochondria from mistletoe species appear to lack a major amount of genes, indicating a possible loss of the NADH ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) which forms an essential part of the mitochondrial Oxidative Phosphorylation System (OXPHOS). This dataset is used for profiling of the mitochondrial complexome from European mistletoe, Viscum album and gives biochemical evidence for a lack of complex I as well as a unique composition of OXPHOS in Viscum album.
