The respiratory complex II carriers concentration was adjusted with respect to the value in Cortassa et al. (16) to match the reported range of oxygen consumption rates (0.04–0.5 mM s−1 = 5–60 μMol O2/min/mg) (1).

The total nucleotide level and inorganic phosphate were corrected with respect to previous publication (16) to follow reported experimental evidence (1,69).
