Using the roundworm C. elegans and cultured human cells, the scientists tested whether adding leucine could stabilize proteins on the outer mitochondrial membrane—the boundary that interacts with the rest of the cell—and how this affects mitochondrial metabolism. In some experiments, leucine was compared with the relat... mitochondria protein
