Overexpression of UCP1 in tobacco induces mitochondrial biogenesis and amplifies a broad stress response

BACKGROUND: Uncoupling protein one (UCP1) is a mitochondrial inner membrane protein capable of uncoupling the electrochemical gradient from adenosine-5′-triphosphate (ATP) synthesis, dissipating energy as heat. UCP1 plays a central role in nonshivering thermogenesis in the brown adipose tissue (BAT)...
