Endogenous inhibitors of the respiratory chain

Abstract Endogenous respiratory inhibitors are widely distributed. They include proteins, fatty acids and some of their derivatives, and cyclic compounds. They act at various sites on the respiratory chain. They may trigger the degradation of mitochondria both in maturation and involution as well as serve for defense against invaders.
