BCH 4024 OC 3426 SP26 E2 Q34: Yоu hаve been hired аs а cоnsultant оn the hit show “Brilliant Minds” and are asked to check the plausibility of a storyline. A patient was poisoned with antimycin. The script has Dr. Oliver Wolf ordering a mitochondrial functional test that shows the exposed patient’s mitochondria are not consuming oxygen, but that it can be restored upon 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP) treatment. The test also shows that mitochondria have a higher-than-normal level of ubiquinol (QH2). What would you tell the writers about their storyline?
