呼吸链底物和抑制剂对线粒体内膜流动性的影响

用DPH和ANS标记大鼠肝线粒体内膜,以稳态荧光偏振法,研究了呼吸链底物和抑制剂对内膜流动性的影响。1.苹果酸+谷氨酸、琥珀酸分别为底物,均能引起内膜流动性增加。2.琥珀酸对含心磷脂的脂质体的膜流动性无影响。3.在鱼藤酮存在的条件下,苹果酸+谷氨酸对内膜流动性的增加作用消失,但琥珀酸的作用仍然存在。有氰化钾时则琥珀酸的作用消失。4.不论外加底物存在与否,鱼藤酮使内膜的流动性下降,而氰化钾则使之增加。抗霉素A亦可使内膜的流动性增加。上述结果表明:线粒体内膜流动性与其功能密切相关。电子沿呼吸链传递使线粒体内膜流动性增加,这种变化可能与呼吸链成分的氧化还原态有关。     

能化态线粒体内膜脂流动性与能量偶联活性

本文从观察温度的影响出发,探讨了鼠肝线粒体内膜体,在琥珀酸氧化建立跨膜质子电化学梯度（ΔμＨ＾＋）时,膜脂双分子层中ＤＰＨ荧光偏振值（ｒ）的变化与膜能量偶联活性之间的相互关系。结果表明,１５￣３５℃温度内,能化引起ｒ值变化趋势相似,ｒ值变化速率随温度升高而增加,但与温度对ｒ值影响相比只是在较小的范围内变动。另一方面,１５￣３０℃温度内,随温度升高质子回漏速率加快,ＲＣＲ值和ＡＤＰ／Ｏ比值下降,但跨     

能化时线粒体内膜脂双分子层结构多相动态

本文报道了鼠肝线粒体内膜体,在琥珀酸氧化或ＡＴＰ水解建立跨膜质子电化学梯度时,膜脂双分子层中ＤＰＨ荧光偏振值出现多个时相动态;ｒ值先迅速下降,再缓慢上升,最终达到高于能化前的ｒ值的恒稳态,表明能化时线粒体内膜脂双分子层有序性在经历短暂下降后,逐渐增大,最终达到更大的结构有序性。在相同时程内呼吸链细胞色素类也经历了相应的多相变化,本文讨论了这两者相关的可能机制,并为呼吸链电子传递机制的动态聚集模型提     

用荧光素磷脂酰乙醇胺直接测定线粒体内膜外表面pH

由磷脂极性头部基团和结合水分子组成的氢键网络有利于质子沿膜表面侧向快速扩散。因而在线粒体氧化磷酸化过程中,与呼吸链电子传递相偶联的跨膜转运质子是否滞留于线粒体内膜外表面即成为一个值得探讨的课题。本文采用荧光素磷脂酰乙醇胺标记于线粒体内膜外表面,首次建立了直接测定线粒体内膜外表面ｐＨ的方法。标记后,线粒体内膜体呼吸控制率,呼吸链电子传递驱动的质子跨膜转移活性及ＡＴＰ合成活性下降了近２８．０％,１１．     

大鼠急性应激时肝线粒体质子跨膜转运活性的调控

大鼠烫伤早期(烫伤后30min),肝线粒体质子和电子传递速度均加快,线粒体能化态跨膜电位降低(均以琥珀酸为底物),线粒体膜脂流动性降低。皮下注射去甲肾上腺素后也有上述现象发生。推测急性应激通过儿茶酚胺类作用于肝细胞,导致线粒体内膜有序性增强所致。

海生植物叶绿体膜中阳离子诱导激发能分配变化的静电控制与非静电控制的研究

Studies on the import and processing of the alternative oxidase precursor by isolated soybean mitochondria

Import of the synthetic precursor of the alternative oxidase from soybean was shown to be dependent on a membrane potential and ATP. The membrane potential in soybean mitochondria may be formed either by respiration through the cytochrome pathway, or through the alternative oxidase pathway with NAD⁺-linked substrates. Import of the alternative oxidase precursor in the presence of succinate as respiratory substrate was inhibited by KCN. Import in the presence of malate was insensitive to KCN and SHAM added separately, but was inhibited by KCN and SHAM added together (inhibitors of the cytochrome and alternative oxidases respectively). Import of the alternative oxidase was accompanied by processing of the precursor to a single 32 kDa product in both cotyledon and root mitochondria. This product had a different mobility than the two alternative oxidase bands detected by immunological means (34 and 36 kDa), suggesting that the enzyme had been modified in situ. When the cDNA clone of the alternative oxidase was modified by a single mutation (–2 Arg changed to –2 Gly), the processing of the precursor was inhibited.

Properties of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae plasma membrane dicarboxylate transporter

Transport of succinate into Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells was determined using the endogenous coupled mitochondrial succinate oxidase system. The dependence of succinate oxidation rate on the substrate concentration was a curve with saturation. At neutral pH the K(m) value of the mitochondrial "succinate oxidase" was fivefold less than that of the cellular "succinate oxidase". O-Palmitoyl-L-malate, not penetrating across the plasma membrane, completely inhibited cell respiration in the presence of succinate but not glucose or pyruvate. The linear inhibition in Dixon plots indicates that the rate of succinate oxidation is limited by its transport across the plasmalemma. O-Palmitoyl-L-malate and L-malate were competitive inhibitors (the K(i) values were 6.6 +/- 1.3 microM and 17.5 +/- 1.1 mM, respectively). The rate of succinate transport was also competitively inhibited by the malonate derivative 2-undecyl malonate (K(i) = 7.8 +/- 1.2 microM) but not phosphate. Succinate transport across the plasma membrane of S. cerevisiae is not coupled with proton transport, but sodium ions are necessary. The plasma membrane of S. cerevisiae is established to have a carrier catalyzing the transport of dicarboxylates (succinate and possibly L-malate and malonate).     

Modulation of endogenous protein phosphorylation in plant mitochondria by respiratory substrates

Purified mitochondria from potato ( Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Bintje) tubers were incubated with [γ³²P]-ATP, respiratory substrates and various effectors. The total incorporation of ³²P into proteins was measured and the phosphoprotein pattern investigated by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. Total incorporation was strongly reduced (by 70–80%) by the respiratory substrates, succinate, pyruvate and NADH. The half-maximal inhibition was at 0.03, 0.3, and 0.3 m M , respectively. The labelling of the major phosphoproteins of 40 and 42 kDa (probably both the α-subunit of the pyruvate dehydrogenase, EC 1.2.4.1) as well as of minor polypeptides of 26–33 kDa was reduced. A concomittant increase in the labelling of the 14 and 16 kDa bands occurred in the presence of succinate in fall but this increase could not be detected in late winter. The reduction in total labelling caused by NADH and succinate was unaffected by changes in the membrane potential (e.g. addition of uncouplers) or by inhibition of electron transport (e.g. by KCN). Malonate inhibition of succinate oxidation reversed the effects of succinate on labelling- The mechanism(s) by which respiratory substrates might affect protein kinase activity is discussed.     

Light-activated,-inhibited and-independent denitrification by a denitrifying phototrophic bacterium

Effects of illumination on denitrification by a freshly isolated denitrifying phototrophic bacterium were investigated. Denitrification activity was induced when cells were grown in either light or darkness in the presence of nitrate without oxygen. Denitrification of nitrate with malate as the electron donor by cells at a phase of exponential growth occurred independently of illumination while that by cells in a stationary phase was activated. Effects of illumination on denitrification varied with electron donors. Using malate or succinate, denitrification by cells in a stationary phase was accelerated by illumination, inhibited when glucose or lactate was used, and independent of illumination when pyruvate was used. Denitrification by cells in an exponential phase was independent of illumination when succinate, malate or pyruvate was used and inhibited by it when glucose or lactate was used. Effects of illumination on the denitrification of nitrite were similar to those involving nitrate. Effects of various inhibitors on denitrification were examined in light-succinate and dark-lactate systems. Differences between the two systems are discussed.Abbreviations KCN potassium cyanide - HQNO 2-n-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide - TTFA 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone - CCCP carbonyl cyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone - DCCD dicyclohexylcarbodiimide     

Regulation of the glucose phosphotransferase system in Brochothrix thermosphacta by membrane energization.

Uptake of 2-deoxyglucose, alpha-methylglucopyranoside, and glucose into intact cells of Brochothrix thermosphacta (formerly Microbacterium thermosphactum, ATCC 11509) was stimulated by KCN or CCCP. The glucose analogs were recovered almost totally as the sugar phosphates. Membrane vesicles were isolated from protoplasts and shown to be right side out by freeze fracturing and by using ATPase as a marker for the cytoplasmic membrane surface. Uptake of glucose into vesicles was dependent on the presence of phosphoenolpyruvate. NADH oxidation, K+ -diffusion gradients, and externally directed lactate gradients (pH greater than 7 initially) were used to generate transmembrane potentials across membrane vesicles. Above a threshold value of about -50 mV, uptake of glucose into membrane vesicles was reduced. Likewise, the maximum uptake of glucose and its two analogs into cells occurred when the protonmotive force was less than about -50 mV.     

Nitric oxide increases oxidative phosphorylation efficiency

We have studied the effect of nitric oxide (NO) and potassium cyanide (KCN) on oxidative phosphorylation efficiency. Concentrations of NO or KCN that decrease resting oxygen consumption by 10–20% increased oxidative phosphorylation efficiency in mitochondria oxidizing succinate or palmitoyl-L-carnitine, but not in mitochondria oxidizing malate plus glutamate. When compared to malate plus glutamate, succinate or palmitoyl-L-carnitine reduced the redox state of cytochrome oxidase. The relationship between membrane potential and oxygen consumption rates was measured at different degrees of ATP synthesis. The use of malate plus glutamate instead of succinate (that changes the H⁺/2e⁻ stoichiometry of the respiratory chain) affected the relationship, whereas a change in membrane permeability did not affect it. NO or KCN also affected the relationship, suggesting that they change the H⁺/2e⁻ stoichiometry of the respiratory chain. We propose that NO may be a natural short-term regulator of mitochondrial physiology that increases oxidative phosphorylation efficiency in a redox-sensitive manner by decreasing the slipping in the proton pumps.     

Generation of a proton potential by succinate dehydrogenase of Bacillus subtilis functioning as a fumarate reductase.

The membrane fraction of Bacillus subtilis catalyzes the reduction of fumarate to succinate by NADH. The activity is inhibited by low concentrations of 2-(heptyl)-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide (HOQNO), an inhibitor of succinate: quinone reductase. In sdh or aro mutant strains, which lack succinate dehydrogenase or menaquinone, respectively, the activity of fumarate reduction by NADH was missing. In resting cells fumarate reduction required glycerol or glucose as the electron donor, which presumably supply NADH for fumarate reduction. Thus in the bacteria, fumarate reduction by NADH is catalyzed by an electron transport chain consisting of NADH dehydrogenase (NADH:menaquinone reductase), menaquinone, and succinate dehydrogenase operating in the reverse direction (menaquinol:fumarate reductase). Poor anaerobic growth of B. subtilis was observed when fumarate was present. The fumarate reduction catalyzed by the bacteria in the presence of glycerol or glucose was not inhibited by the protonophore carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone (CCCP) or by membrane disruption, in contrast to succinate oxidation by O2. Fumarate reduction caused the uptake by the bacteria of the tetraphenyphosphonium cation (TPP+) which was released after fumarate had been consumed. TPP+ uptake was prevented by the presence of CCCP or HOQNO, but not by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, an inhibitor of ATP synthase. From the TPP+ uptake the electrochemical potential generated by fumarate reduction was calculated (Deltapsi = -132 mV) which was comparable to that generated by glucose oxidation with O2 (Deltapsi = -120 mV). The Deltapsi generated by fumarate reduction is suggested to stem from menaquinol:fumarate reductase functioning in a redox half-loop.     

The electron transport chain of Bacterionema matruchotii

The membrane fraction of Bacterionema matruchotii contains an electron transport chain with oxidizing activity for NADH and succinate. Respiration was inhibited by KCN, 2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide, UV light irradiation and CO. UV light irradiation, analysis of membrane extracts, and reconstitution of respiration in UV light treated membranes suggested that respiration is mediated by a menaquinone derivative. The membranes contained cytochromes a, b, and c. Inhibition studies and the effect of KCN and CO on the cytochrome spectrum indicated the presence of an a+a3 cytochrome oxidase and cytochrome o. The membrane fraction from cells grown under O2-limiting conditions contained nitrate reductase activity. In B. matruchotii, electron transport is coupled to oxidative phosphorylation as judged by the effects of substrates and inhibitors on the intracellular ATP concentration.     

Glass microelectrode measurements of sieve tube membrane potentials in internode discs and petiole strips of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.)

Summary In tissue slices of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) sieve tube membrane potentials (E_m) were measured by use of glass microelectrodes. In internode discs, the potential differences (pd) of phloem cells near the cut surface fell into two distinct categories with average values of –66 and –109 mV. More distant from the cut surface the values decreased to averages of –71 and –140 mV. These pds were associated with phloem parenchyma cells and sieve tube/companion cell complexes, respectively. In petiole strips, pds were recorded from cells which were identified by iontophoretic injection of fluorescent dye. Averages in two different bathing media, were –140/–146mV, –149/–152mV, and –70/–68mV for sieve tubes, companion cells, and phloem parenchyma cells, respectively. The membrane potentials recorded from sieve tubes were transiently reduced upon sucrose addition. Reduction by CCCP and KCN was more permanent. Sieve tube E_ms recovered more slowly from potassium than from sucrose-induced depolarizations. Light/ dark (L/D) responses were minute (±3 mV). The limitations of the present experimentation are evaluated with special reference to the question as whether the recorded E_ms represent sieve tube membrane potentials occurring in the intact plant.Abbreviations CCCP carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone - D dark(ness) - E_m membrane potential - L light - LYCH Lucifer yellow CH - pd potential difference - SE standard error
