Emerging evidence supports the proposition that the mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) functions viaorganized multicomplex structures called supercomplexes. However the dynamics and regulation ofsupercomplex assembly have not been fully investigated. In particular, hardly any regulatory protein factorsinvolved in supercomplex assembly have been identified. Our long term goal is to understand the dynamics ofmitochondrial respiratory machinery and its underling regulatory mechanism.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, accounting for approximately 18% of all cancer deaths.1 Despite treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy, the standard of care for first-line therapy, patients with metastatic NSCLC have a median survival of approximately 10 months, and a 5-year survival rate of less than 5%. Immunotherapeutic approaches have demonstrated clinical efficacy in several cancer types, including melanoma, hormone-refractory prostate cancer, and lung cancer.3,4.
