Abstract
Mitochondria perform essential metabolic processes that sustain cellular bioenergetics and biosynthesis. In a recent article, Ryu et al. explored how mitochondria coordinate biochemical reactions with opposing redox demands within the same cell. They demonstrate that subcellular mitochondrial heterogeneity enables metabolic compartmentalization to permit concurrent oxidative ATP production and reductive proline biosynthesis.
