摘要
This paper describes peculiar properties of plant mitochondria and summarizes the experiments that led to the discovery of an uncoupling protein in these mitochondria. Recent advances in the study of the biochemical and physiological properties as well as on genes encoding plant uncoupling proteins are described in articles by Borecky et al., Jezek et al., and Jarmuszkiewicz et al. in this issue.
