LEAK state

Description

L.jpg The LEAK state, L, is the non-phosphorylating resting state of intrinsic uncoupled or dyscoupled respiration when oxygen flux is maintained mainly to compensate for the proton leak at a high chemiosmotic potential, when ATP synthase is not active (LEAK respiration).

Abbreviation: L
