Pathway and coupling control states

Description

In mitochondrial respiratory physiology a large number of pathway and coupling control states is encountered, for which a unified system of terms and abbreviations is required. In mitochondrial preparations there is a large number of potentially complex pathway control states, in contrast to only three coupling control states (L, P, E). Therefore, it is practical to use L, P, and E as subscripts attached to the abbreviation of the pathway control state.
