Live-Cell Imaging of Mitochondrial Redox State in Yeast Cells

Summary: The redox state of mitochondria is one indicator of the functional state of the organelles. Mitochondria are also the primary endogenous source of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Therefore, the redox state of the organelles also reflects their function in ROS production. Here, we provide ste...
