Model predictions for isolated mitochondria

Experimental Values (79) Model Predictions
State 3 respiration, nmol O2·mg−1·s−1 4.08 ± 0.60 4.09
Respiratory control ratio 8.5 ± 0.9 9.6
Leak respiration, nmol O2·mg−1·s−1 0.37 ± 0.06 0.46
P/O at half-maximum respiration 1.8 ± 0.1 1.92

Respiration fluxes are per milligram of mitochondrial protein. P/O, amount of ATP produced by F0F1-ATP synthase per oxygen atom reduced by the respiratory chain.
