Electron transport chain assembly into respirasomes. When the individual complexes of the ETC transfer electrons by random collision, electron flux is less efficient (left). However, the assembly of complexes I, III, and IV with ubiquinone and cytochrome c into supercomplexes called respirasomes greatly increases the efficiency of electron transfer and oxygen consumption
