What is the role of noradrenaline in the context of uncoupling proteins and heat generation?

Noradrenaline stimulates lipolysis, providing fuel for oxidation, and activates UCP1, allowing protons to dissipate the p.m.f. as heat Signup and view all the answers

What happens when electron transport is inhibited by substances like carbon monoxide, cyanide, rotenone, or antimycin?

NADH and FAD2H are unable to be oxidized, preventing the creation of a p.m.f. and the synthesis of ATP, leading to irreversible cell damage Signup and view all the answers
