Abstract: | The effect of mono-, di-, and trinucleoside phosphates and respiratory inhibitors on respiration in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Rideau) mitochondria has been examined. When added during state 4 respiration, subsequent to addition of ADP, all of the dinucleotides stimulated oxidation and induced respiratory control with all substrates examined. Similar results were obtained with AMP, but other mononucleotides and all trinucleotides did not affect the rate of oxidation. Nucleoside diphosphates did not stimulate respiration when added prior to the addition of ADP, but subsequent addition of AMP, ADP, or ATP re-established coupled respiration in the presence of the dinucleotides. |
