Mitochondrion of Yeast: Ultrastructural Evidence for One Giant, Branched Organelle per Cell

Explore this paper's citation graph

Summary

Three-dimensional models constructed from 80 to 150 consecutive serial sections of entire yeast cells showed that all the separate mitochondrial profiles were cross sections through a single, branching, tubular structure about 50 to 60 micrometers in length and 200 to 600 nanometers in diameter.
