Mitochondria Structure & Function

You can find the NOTES and ILLUSTRATIONS for this lecture on our website at:

Ninja Nerds!
In this lecture Professor Zach Murphy will be presenting on the Mitochondria Structure & Function. During this lecture we will be continuing our discussion of the cell and the organelles that make up the cell. For this lesson, we will be talking about the mitochondria or the powerhouse of the cell and the functions this important organelle is responsible for. We will also be including a mitochondria animation from our talented friends @nucleusmedicalmedia. This video is a collaboration between @NinjaNerdOfficial + @nucleusmedicalmedia.

I love this guys enthusiasm. He knows his stuff and enjoys the hell out of it. Bravo.

[Sb-riln]

Would love a histology series/playlist. Thanks for all you do!

[callmeKhaleesi_]

Great teacher! I‘m first grade of medical student who loves listening classes from you. You make everything easy to learn. Thanks a lot! Love from Türkiye ❤

[Sherchoksudoh]

One of THE BEST teacher ever found in YouTube. Thank you so much for making this video. I watched lots of YouTube channel but not used to write comments below. This video deserve lots of like and comments. 🎉 Woow!

[JaguarWscieklyPies]

you never dissapointed me, another great video rich in knowledge

[novakkz]

more on the GIT series pls sir, you're the only one I can watch hours non stop and actually learn 🙏🏻

[jjodutube]

I’m blown away by your excellent presentation. Thanks. 😮

Video comment... at about 12:02 of the video the location of glycolysis was mentioned as occurring within the mitochondria, actually it occurs in the cytosol (per multiple reference sources). Overall very good video and teaching technique. Thank you.

[mm_me]

You’re gonna be the one I’ll be thanking the most after my 1st year of med school

[marvelaiman]

You're just way better than my college professors!!❤

[fadeladdeeb]

Thank you.
Great efforts to make the subject easy to be understood. I have two remarks: 1- Glycolysis does not take place in the mitochondria, but in the cytoplasm. 2- Acetyl-CoA can not be converted into pyruvate. I am sure you know that.

Finally I got
I was looking for best lecture about mitochondria
Love from kashmir 🤗🤗

[monkeyglocks]

The enthusiasm is so great. When he started talking about apoptosis I genuinely got excited to hear about it lmao

[NorthForkFisherman]

Good overview. And a lot of detail as well. I'm hoping the next mitochondria-specific vid will be on some of the dysfunctions of the organelle and how that presents and is treated in patients. To try and address these issues within the cell really is the holy grail of genetic therapy as these genes are so vital and so conserved. There really is no room for error whatsoever.

[CollegeCreditCoach]

This was a very helpful video for my son as he is preparing to take his Biology CLEP test! Thank you!

[ariellawson]

Why is it unfortunately the side reaction of oxygen in the electron transport chain? Apart of the reactive oxygen species? Because those electrons are not converted into ATP?

[jamesgordon]

This needs updates. Mitochondrial function is so different for each organ! 😊

[tarcisioferraz]

That's very cool! A high standard explanation! Thank you!

[bubblegum]

11:57 correct me if im wrong but doesnt glycolysis happen in the cytoplasm

[Anna-kumu]

Thank you so much! Watching a video about different types of mitochondrial dysfunction, their causes, and their clinical features would be great.
