Mitochondrial Magnetoperception and Quantal Perception

Mehr zum Buch

Exploring the innovative concept of endosymbiotic archaea within the brain, this work delves into their capabilities, such as magnetoperception and magnetotaxis. It discusses the evolution of mitochondria from proteobacteria and their unique functions, including forming an extracellular network that influences brain function and neurotransmitter release. The presence of mitochondrial clusters in nerve endings highlights their role in neurotransmission, while iron-sulphur centers and flavoproteins enhance their magnetotactic abilities, revealing a complex interplay between biology and magnetism.
