    AnnotationWe demonstrate that mammalian mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (mGPDH, EC 1.1.99.5) represents an efficient site within mitochondrial respiratory chain where ROS could be formed. ROS-sensitive spectrofluorometric probes in the presence of specific respiratory chain inhibitors allowed us to analyze the contribution of dehydrogenase and coenzyme Q pool in ROS production as compared to complex III. In addition to the brown adipose tissue mitochondria that contain high amount of mGPDH, we investigated the ROS production in mitochondria from tissues, whose mGPDH content is very low (liver, heart, brain) and observed notable efficiency to generate ROS when glycerol-3-phosphate is present
