What is the solution inside a mitochondrion?
mitochondrialmatrix The matrix is the space enclosed by the inner membrane. It contains about 2/3 of the total protein in a mitochondrion.[6] The matrix is important in the production of ATP with the aid of the ATP synthase contained in the inner membrane. The matrix contains a highly-concentrated mixture of hundreds of enzymes, special mitochondrial ribosomes, tRNA, and several copies of the mitochondrial DNA genome. Of the enzymes, the major functions include oxidation of pyruvate and fatty acids, and the citric acid cycle.[6]
