Steps and respiratory states

Step	State	Pathway	Q-junction	Comment - Events (E) and Marks (M)
ce1	ROUTINE			ROUTINE respiration in the physiological coupling state R. Externally added permeable substrates could contribute to this respiratory state.
ce2P	ROUTINE			ce1;ce2P. Pyruvate, ROUTINE, R ROUTINE respiration in the physiological coupling state R. Externally added permeable substrates could contribute to this respiratory state.
ce3Omy	L			ce1;ce2P;ce3Omy Non-phosphorylating resting state (LEAK state); LEAK respiration L(n) in the absence of ADP, ATP, AMP (no adenylates).
ce4U	E			ce1;ce2P;ce3Omy;ce4U Uncoupler titration (avoiding inhibition by high uncoupler concentrations) to obtain electron transfer (ET) capacity E (noncoupled ET-state). Test for limitation of OXPHOS capacity P by the phosphorylation system (ANT, ATP synthase, phosphate transporter) relative to ET capacity E in mt-preparations: E-P control efficiency and E-L coupling efficiency. In living cells: E-R control efficiency and E-L coupling efficiency. Noncoupled electron transfer state, ET state, with ET capacity E.
ce5Rot	ROX			ce1;ce2P;ce3Omy;ce4U;ce5Rot Rox is the residual oxygen consumption in the ROX state, due to oxidative side reactions, estimated either after inhibition of CIII (e.g. antimycin A, myxothiazol), CIV (e.g. Cyanide) or in the absence of endogenous fuel-substrates. Rox is subtracted from oxygen flux as a baseline for all respiratory states, to obtain mitochondrial respiration.

ce6S				ce1;ce2P;ce3Omy;ce4U;ce5Rot;ce6S Succinate pathway control state (S-pathway) after inhibiting CI with rotenone, which also inhibits the F-pathway. Succinate, S ( type S-pathway to Q).
1Dig*	SE	S	CII	ce1;ce2P;ce3Omy;ce4U;ce5Rot;ce6S;1Dig Multiple Digitonin titrations for complete plasma membrane permeabilization. Noncoupled electron transfer state, ET state, with ET capacity E.
1c	SE	S	CII	ce1;ce2P;ce3Omy;ce4U;ce5Rot;ce6S;1Dig;1U;1c Addition of cytochrome c yields a test for integrity of the mtOM (cytochrome c control efficiency). Stimulation by added cytochrome c would indicate an injury of the mtOM and limitation of respiration in the preceding state without added c due to loss of cytochrome c. Typically, cytochrome c is added immediately after the earliest ADP-activation step (OXPHOS capacity P with saturating [ADP]). Noncoupled electron transfer state, ET state, with ET capacity E.
2Ama	ROX			ce1;ce2P;ce3Omy;ce4U;ce5Rot;ce6S;1Dig;1U;1c;2Ama Rox is the residual oxygen consumption in the ROX state, due to oxidative side reactions, estimated after addition of antimycin A (inhibitor of CIII). Rox is subtracted from oxygen flux as a baseline for all respiratory states, to obtain mitochondrial respiration (mt). Rox is the residual oxygen consumption in the ROX state, due to oxidative side reactions, estimated either after inhibition of CIII (e.g. antimycin A, myxothiazol), CIV (e.g. Cyanide) or in the absence of endogenous fuel-substrates. Rox is subtracted from oxygen flux as a baseline for all respiratory states, to obtain mitochondrial respiration.
