	A '''mitoplast'''' is an ''in vitro'' variant of the mitochondrion; it is a [[mitochondrion]] removed from its containing cell, but with the [[outer mitochondrial membrane]] removed. The mitoplast differs from the [[isolated mitochondrion]], which is also removed from its containing cell but still has an outer mitochondrial membrane.		A '''mitoplast''' is an ''in vitro'' variant of the mitochondrion; it is a [[mitochondrion]] removed from its containing cell, but with the [[outer mitochondrial membrane]] removed. The mitoplast differs from the [[isolated mitochondrion]], which is also removed from its containing cell but still has an outer mitochondrial membrane.
