摘要
We have shown that the Metabolic Control Analysis (MCA) can explain the threshold effect observed in the expression of mitochondrial diseases [8]. As a matter of fact, the effect of a specific inhibitor on the flux of O2 consumption mimics a defect in a step of oxidative phosphorylation. The observed threshold is correlated to the value of the control coefficient of the inhibited step.
