molecular biology | considering the conservation of amino acids crucial for the SQR activity and the high levels of ROS production from the mitochondrial complex II of the Ascaris suum adult worm together with the absence of complexes III and IV activities in its respiratory chain, it is a good model to examine the reactive oxygen species production from the mitochondrial complex II | Ascaris suum |

physiological function | using the submitochondrial particles from the adult worms and L3 larvae of the parasitic nematode Ascaris suum, it is shown that reactive oxygen species are produced from the flavin adenine dinucleotide-binding site as well as the quinone binding site in the mitochondrial complex II | Ascaris suum |
