Liver mitochondria provided with an oxidizable substrate, ATP, oxygen, and an ADP-generating system (soluble F1-ATPase) were used to reevaluate the rate-controlling step(s) intrinsic to all of the processes of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. The quantity termed “control strength” (C), previously defined as the fractional change in flux through a (system) induced by a fractional change in the concentration of an individual enzyme in the system, has been used to evaluate rate-influencing steps in this overall process by carefully defining the dimensions of the “system” under analysis. If the system is defined by a suspension of mitochondria provided with substrates, plus an extrinsic ADP-generating process (ATPase), the value of C of the latter for the overall process of phosphorylation-linked respiration is near 1.0 until the capacity of the mitochondria to phosphorylate ADP is approached, after which C for the soluble ATPase becomes zero as the maximum capacity for phosphorylation is attained. Carboxyatractyloside was found only marginally to inhibit respiration stimulated by ATPase, even when a large percentage of adenine nucleotide translocase molecules were immobilized. The relative lack of effect of carboxyatractyloside on phosphorylating respiration is explained by the readjustment of the concentration of one of the substrates (ADP) and an inhibitor (ATP), which results from inhibition of adenine nucleotide translocase. The residual blunted inhibition of respiration is explained by product inhibition of the ADP-regenerating ATPase, and not necessarily to any intrinsically mitochondrial intermediate process. The system being evaluated can be redefined to include only the processes intrinsic to mitochondria. This can be achieved by providing exactly comparable substrate concentrations to the mitochondria under comparable incubation conditions. Under these conditions, the adenine nucleotide translocase is the principal, if not the only, rate-controlling step in the overall process of oxidative phosphorylation until a new rate-limitation is attained (ATP synthesis). These data are consistent with the conclusion that, at intermediate rates of phosphorylation-coupled respiration, the extramitochondrial ratio regulates this process through its kinetic effects on the catalytic properties of the adenine nucleotide translocase. 相似文献

Glucagon injected into rats via tail vein or incubated with isolated hepatocytes in vitro caused a 22–35% increase in the intramitochondrial ATP+ADP+AMP content. There was no statistically significant change in state 3 or uncoupled respiratory rates in these mitochondria. Similar glucagon effects were noted irrespective of the medium used or time required for isolation of mitochondria. There has been recent controversy over possible artifacts in assessing the effects of glucagon on mitochondrial function. The present results suggest that the glucagon-induced increase in the matrix adenine nucleotide content is a reproducible phenomenon with probable physiological significance. 相似文献

The in vitro effect of Escherichia coli endotoxin on the translocation of adenine nucleotides in dog heart mitochondria was studied. Mitochondrial adenine nucleotides were labeled with 14C by incubating mitochondrial preparations in the presence of [14C]ADP. The exchange reaction was initiated by addition of unlabeled ADP, proceeded for 5 to 60 s at 4 °C, and was terminated by addition of atractyloside. The results showed that preincubation of mitochondria with endotoxin (50 μg/mg protein) for 10 min at 23 °C decreased the exchange reaction by 21.2% (P < 0.05). The inhibitory effect of endotoxin was increased with increasing concentrations of endotoxin with an I50 value of 45 μg/mg protein. The initial rate and the total extent of exchange were both affected. Double reciprocal plots showed that only the V but not the Km for ADP was affected by endotoxin, indicating that the inhibition was noncompetitive in nature. The exchange of adenine nucleotide remained depressed by endotoxin in the presence of either oligomycin or antimycin A, indicating that the inhibitory effect of endotoxin was independent of the action of endotoxin on oxidative phosphorylation. The leakage of labeled adenine nucleotides from mitochondria at 23 °C was increased by 100% by endotoxin (100 μg/mg protein) in the absence of added unlabeled ADP, and this increase in the leakage could not be blocked by atractyloside. The endotoxin-induced changes in adenine nucleotide exchange and leakage were either partially or completely prevented by hydrocortisone, heparin, dibucaine, or EDTA. Since most of these agents have in common an effect on lipid metabolism, it is suggested that endotoxin-induced alterations in the exchange and leakage of adenine nucleotides in heart mitochondria are protected through a mechanism involving membrane lipid reorganization. 相似文献

The rate of salvage of purine nucleotides from hypoxanthine in glycolyzing, cultured rat heart cells was found to be decreased when respiration was suppressed. Pyruvate or phenazine methosulfate, acting as hydrogen acceptors, reversed the effect of the respiratory block. The inhibition and the reversal could not be attributed to the limitation of energy supply or of 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate. A causal connection was, however, shown to exist between this inhibition and the concomitant shift in the redox state of NAD+ in favor of NADH. NADH also inhibited the key enzyme of the salvage pathway, hypoxanthine-guanine-phosphoribosyltransferase, in cell-free extracts. Regulation of purine nucleotide synthesis by the redox state of NAD+ in heart cells might gain significance during transition from respiring to hypoxic state and vice versa. 相似文献

Effects of ATP on various steps controlling the rate of oxidative phosphorylation in newborn rat liver mitochondria 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Preincubation of newborn rat liver mitochondria with ATP increases their state 3 respiration rate [J. K. Pollak (1975) Biochem. J. 150, 477-488; J. R. Aprille, and G. K. Asimakis (1980) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 201, 564-575]. To determine which reactions contribute to control the rate of succinate oxidation with and without prior exposure to ATP, the effects of inhibitors specific for various reactions were studied. The adenine nucleotide translocator does not control the respiration in newborn more than in the adult mitochondria. The supply of reducing equivalents to the respiratory chain is an important step controlling the rate of oxidative phosphorylation by mitochondria from newborn rat liver, especially after preincubation with ATP. On the contrary, titrations with oligomycin show that the preincubation with ATP markedly decreases the control exerted by the ATPase-ATP synthase complex. That the rate of ATP synthesis is one of the steps controlling the rate of oxidative phosphorylation in newborn rat liver mitochondria is in striking contrast to the behavior of adult rat liver mitochondria. Other differences include a greater permeability to protons and a marked increase in sensitivity to mersalyl, indicating an easier accessibility of the proteins involved in oxidative phosphorylation to the thiol reagent. 相似文献

Factors influencing pyrroline 5-carboxylate (P5C) synthesis from glutamate by a subcellular fraction enriched in mitochondria of rat small intestinal mucosa have been studied. P5C synthesis decreased rapidly if this subcellular fraction was preincubated at 20 degrees C in the absence of substrates; this effect suggests that the enzyme(s) catalyzing P5C synthesis from glutamate (P5C synthase) is unstable in the absence of substrates. In the presence of substrates P5C synthesis increased linearly for the first 30 min of incubation, suggesting that the substrates promote enzyme stability. Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate is an effective inhibitor of P5C synthase whereas pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate and pyridoxal are not inhibitory. Potassium phosphate, KCl, and KBr each inhibited P5C synthase but potassium-Hepes (4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid) did not. Potassium phosphate was the most potent inhibitor followed by KBr, and then KCl. These results suggest P5C synthase is sensitive to anion inhibition. Both L-ornithine and D-ornithine inhibited P5C synthase; L-proline did not inhibit. Several analogs of ornithine and proline were also tested and none was found to inhibit P5C synthase; the inhibition by ornithine is, therefore, rather specific and it may prove to contribute to the regulation of metabolism of these amino acids. 相似文献

Rat heart mitochondria have been incubated with concentrations of pyruvate from 50 to 500 μm as substrate in the presence or absence of an optimal concentration of palmitoylcarnitine and with respiration limited by phosphate acceptor. The rate of pyruvate utilization has been determined and compared with the amount of active (dephosphorylated) pyruvate dehydrogenase measured in samples of mitochondria taken throughout the experiments and assayed under Vmax conditions. At a given pyruvate concentration, differences in pyruvate utilization as a proportion of the content of active pyruvate dehydrogenase are attributed to differences in feed-back inhibition and interpreted in terms of the ratios of mitochondrial and CoA/acetyl-CoA. Under most conditions, differences in inhibition can be attributed to differences in the CoA/acetyl-CoA ratio. Feed-back inhibition is very pronounced in the presence of palmitoylcarnitine. These parameters are also examined in the presence of dichloroacetate, used to raise the steady-state levels of active pyruvate dehydrogenase in the absence of changing the pyruvate concentration, and in the presence of various ratios of carnitine/acetylcarnitine, which predominantly change the mitochondrial CoA/acetyl-CoA ratio. The latter experiment provides evidence that a decrease in mitochondrial ratio from 3.5 to 2.2 essentially balances an increase in CoA/acetyl-CoA ratio from 0.67 to 12 in modulating enzyme interconversion, whereas the change in CoA/acetyl-CoA ratio is preponderant in effecting feed-back inhibition. Increasing the free Ca2+ concentration of incubation media from 10?7 to 10?6m using CaCl2-ethylene glycol bis(β-aminoethyl ether)-N,N′-tetraacetic acid buffers is shown to increase the steady-state level of active pyruvate dehydrogenase in intact mitochondria, in the absence of added ionophores. Moreover, this activation is reversible. Effects of Ca2+ ions are dependent upon the poise of the enzyme interconversion system and were only seen in these experiments in the presence of palmitoylcarnitine. 相似文献

The prolonged feeding of ethanol to rats alters in vitro mitochondrial transport of calcium. Hepatic mitochondria isolated from rats fed ethanol for 7 weeks exhibited decreased retention of calcium in the presence of 4mM-Pi. This defect was associated with enhanced efflux of calcium when mitochondria were incubated with EGTA. Acetaldehyde at low, "physiological" concentrations (100 microM) enhanced calcium retention by mitochondria but this response was blunted after chronic ethanol administration. The in vitro actions of acetaldehyde appear to be mediated, in part, by its metabolism in mitochondria since pretreatment of rats with cyanamide (an aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitor) prevents this effect. 相似文献

The possibility that the availability of ATP may affect the rate of synthesis of carbamoyl phosphate (measured as citrulline) by carbamoyl phosphate synthase (ammonia) was studied using respiring isolated rat liver mitochondria incubated with added ADP, with hexokinase, glucose, and ATP, or with atractylate, in order to enhance or prevent the efflux of mitochondrial ATP. The effects of these agents were compared with those on oxaloacetate synthesis from pyruvate. Addition of hexokinase, glucose, and ATP to isolated mitochondria resulted in an inhibition of citrulline synthesis which was proportional to the amounts of glucose 6-phosphate formed; under these conditions, matrix ATP and ATP/ADP tended to decrease. The addition of increasing amounts of ADP also resulted in proportional inhibition of citrulline synthesis, but in this case the matrix content of ATP and ADP increased, and ATP/ADP decreased very slightly. In the presence of atractylate, citrulline synthesis was maximal despite a 30% decrease in matrix ATP and ATP/ADP. These effects were observed whether pyruvate, succinate, glutamate, or β-OH-butyrate was used as the respiratory substrate. ADP, the hexokinase system, and atractylate had qualitatively similar but much less pronounced effects on oxaloacetate synthesis from pyruvate. Within the limits of variation observed in these experiments, the rate of synthesis of citrulline appears not to be affected by the matrix content of total ATP, total ADP, or by ATP/ADP. It is affected, however, by the velocity of translocation of ATP into the extramitochondrial medium. These findings suggest that carbamoyl phosphate synthase (ammonia) may be loosely associated with the mitochondrial inner membrane, and may compete for ATP with the ATP-ADP translocator to an extent determined by the extramitochondrial demands for ATP. 相似文献

The route of movement of ADP produced in the mitochondrial creatine kinase reaction was investigated by recording the rate of ADP-dependent oxygen consumption in the presence of phosphoenolpyruvate and pyruvate kinase. This pyruvate kinase system completely abolished activation of respiration by ADP added or by ADP produced in the hexokinase reaction in the medium, but was not able to inhibit the creatine kinase activated respiration when creatine kinase was bound to the inner mitochondrial membrane. These different responses of oxidative phosphorylation were observed at equal ratios in the medium. The data obtained evidence direct channeling of ADP from heart mitochondrial creatine kinase to the adenine nucleotide translocase without its prompt release into the medium. 相似文献

CPDS (6,6'-dithiodinicotinic acid), a non permeant thiol agent which affects several mitochondrial functions in a way different to that of mersalyl [18-19] revealed striking differences between the phosphate translocating systems of pig heart and rat liver mitochondria. Pi entry was measured either by swelling in 0.12 M ammonium phosphate or by rapid centrifugation in 32Pi medium. Pi efflux was measured after preloading of mitochondria with 32Pi, by exchange against Pi or malate; the "ATP-FCCP" system has been tested previously [19]. In pig heart mitochondria, Pi entry seems to proceed exclusively via the Pi/OH- carrier; CPDS completely inhibits this transport and the energy-linked functions. In contrast n-butyl-malonate does not affect the Pi-entry and the energy-linked functions. The Pi efflux is not affected either by CPDS or mersalyl, which do not produce a swelling in the "ATP-uncoupler system". In rat liver mitochondria, CPDS inhibits only the Pi/OH- carrier; both CPDS and n-butylmalonate are necessary to inhibit completely Pi entry. CPDS as well as mersalyl provokes a swelling in the presence of the "APT-uncoupler system". The results suggest two distinct functions of phosphate transport in both types of mitochondria. 相似文献

The contents of mitochondrial inner membrane protein complexes were compared in normal liver and in Zajdela hepatoma mitochondria by the immunotransfer technique. Antibodies against core proteins 1 and 2, cytochrome c1, the iron-sulfur protein of Complex III, subunits I and II of cytochrome oxidase, and the alpha and beta subunits of the F1-ATPase were used. In addition, antibodies against a primary dehydrogenase, beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, as well as the outer membrane pore protein were used. The results indicate that the components of the cytochrome chain and porin are greatly enriched in hepatoma mitochondria compared to normal rat liver mitochondria. This enrichment was also reflected in the rates of respiration in tumor mitochondria using a variety of substrates. Enrichment of porin may partially account for increased hexokinase binding to tumor mitochondria. In contrast to the respiratory chain components, the F1-ATPase and F0 (measured by DCCD binding) were not increased in tumor mitochondria. Thus, Zajdela hepatoma mitochondria components are nonstoichiometric, being enriched in oxidative capacity but relatively deficient in ATP synthesizing capacity. Finally, beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, which is often decreased in hepatoma mitochondria, was shown here by immunological methods to be decreased by only 40%, whereas enzyme activity was less than 5% of that in normal rat liver. 相似文献

3-O-Methylglucose uptake by Ca2+-resistant adult rat heart cells in suspension was measured, free of artifactual inhibitor-insensitive uptake, and with an accuracy of +/- 1.9% pellet water. (Ca2+-resistant cells are cells which retain their original rod-shaped morphology in the presence of physiological levels of Ca2+.) High levels of insulin (10(-6) M) stimulated the rate of 3-O-methylglucose uptake approximately 10-fold. In the presence of low levels of insulin (3 X 10(-11) M, 10(-10) M) uptake was biphasic; it could not be described by a single exponential function within experimental error, but required the sum of two exponentials. Deviation from a single exponential function was not so great with high levels of insulin (10(-6) M) or no insulin. Cell sugar uptake was also investigated using autoradiography of cells which had accumulated [2-14C]deoxyglucose under similar conditions. This showed considerable heterogeneity of 2-deoxyglucose uptake by cells treated with low levels of insulin, but significantly less heterogeneity of 2-deoxyglucose uptake by cells treated with high levels of insulin. It is concluded that the deviation of 3-O-methylglucose uptake from a single exponential observed at low insulin levels can be accounted for in terms of a heterogeneous response of cells to insulin. 相似文献

The reaction of fluorescamine with ammonia, benzylamine, o,p-dimethylbenzylamine, 2-phenylethylamine, p-aminobenzoic acid, and the mycosamine-containing macrolide antibiotic, amphotericin B, yield compounds which induce significant effects on mitochondrial activities. From their effects on energy-yielding processes which lead to transmembranous proton movements, the compounds may be divided into three classes. While all modifiers significantly inhibit proton movement induced by both ATP hydrolysis and electron transfer in mitochondria, their influence on the primary energy yielding steps are quite different. Class I modifiers, e.g., the compound made from amphotericin B, inhibit electron transfer but have no effect on the Pi release associated with ATP hydrolysis. Class II modifiers, e.g., the compound made from benzylamine, inhibit respiration but stimulate Pi release. Class III modifiers, e.g., the compound made from p-aminobenzoic acid, on the other hand, only slightly increase Pi release but have no effect on redox reactions. These and other effects of the modifiers are taken to mean that the proton movements and their associated energy-yielding processes are only linked indirectly. The effects of the modifiers on State 3 mitochondrial activities were also investigated. Although all the modifiers decrease the rates of both State 3 respiration and its coupled ATP synthesis, the efficiency of energy conversion measured by the P/O ratio remains unaltered. 相似文献

Hydroperoxides have previously been shown to induce Ca2+ release from intact rat liver mitochondria via a specific release pathway. Here it is reported that, in rat brain mitochondria, a hydroperoxide-induced Ca2+ release is also operative but is of minor importance. Hydroperoxide stimulates Ca2+ release in the presence of ruthenium red about twofold at a Ca2+ load of 40 nmol/mg mitochondrial protein. After addition of hydroperoxide, Ca2+ release from brain mitochondria can still be evoked by Na+. In the presence of succinate and rotenone, hydroperoxide induces only a very limited oxidation of pyridine nucleotides, most probably due to the low level of glutathione peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.9) and glutathione reductase (EC 1.6.4.2) found in brain mitochondria. Similar to liver mitochondria, a NADase (EC 3.2.2.5) activity is found in brain mitochondria. Its localization and sensitivity toward ADP and ATP, however, is different from that of the liver mitochondrial enzyme. 相似文献

The influence of pH on the kinetics of the initial rate of calcium uptake by isolated kidney mitochondria was studied using the ruthenium red-ethylene glycol bis(β-aminoethyl ether) N,N-tetraacetic acid quench method (K. Reed and F. Bygrave, 1975, Eur. J. Biochem.55, 497–504). In the absence of phosphate, the Km is increased 50% and the V is decreased 57% when the pH is decreased from pH 7.4 to 7.0. Conversely, when the pH is increased to 7.8, the Km is decreased 25% while the V is not affected. The presence of 0.1 or 0.4 mm phosphate in the incubation medium abolishes the change in Km at a low pH while the V remains depressed by 36 and 25%, respectively. The presence of phosphate does not affect the decrease in the Km seen with an increased medium pH. Mitochondria incubated in steady-state conditions with a medium free calcium of 0.7 μm also show significant changes in calcium exchange and distribution with pH. Two kinetic calcium pools are found in isolated mitochondria. Decreasing pH from 7.4 to 7.1 decreases mitochondria total calcium 32%, decreases the rapidly exchanging pool 28%, and depresses both the mitochondrial membrane and an intramitochondrial calcium exchange by 54 and 22%, respectively. Raising the pH to 7.7 increases both exchangeable pools (63 and 46%), and increases the mitochondrial membrane calcium exchange 44%. These results are consistent with previous studies on the influence of intracellular pH on calcium metabolism of kidney cells in which the mitochondrial pool was markedly affected by pH (R. Studer, and A. Borle, 1979, J. Membrane Biol.48, 325–341). Alterations in cellular pH may modify mitochondrial calcium transport and cellular calcium metabolism and thus affect cell functions which are calcium dependent. 相似文献

Effect of acetaldehyde and cyanamide on the metabolism of formaldehyde by hepatocytes, mitochondria, and soluble supernatant from rat liver 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Formaldehyde can be metabolized primarily by two different pathways, one involving oxidation by the low-Km mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase, the other involving a specific, glutathione-dependent, formaldehyde dehydrogenase. To estimate the roles played by each enzyme in formaldehyde metabolism by rat hepatocytes, experiments with acetaldehyde and cyanamide, a potent inhibitor of the low-Km aldehyde dehydrogenase were carried out. The glutathione-dependent oxidation of formaldehyde by 100,000g rat liver supernatant fractions was not affected by either acetaldehyde or by cyanamide. By contrast, the uptake of formaldehyde by intact mitochondria was inhibited 75 to 90% by cyanamide. Acetaldehyde inhibited the uptake of formaldehyde by mitochondria in a competitive fashion. Formaldehyde was a weak inhibitor of the oxidation of acetaldehyde by mitochondria, suggesting that, relative to formaldehyde, acetaldehyde was a preferred substrate. In isolated hepatocytes, cyanamide, which inhibited the oxidation of acetaldehyde by 75 to 90%, produced only 30 to 50% inhibition of formaldehyde uptake by cells as well as of the production of 14CO2 and of formate from [14C]formaldehyde. The extent of inhibition by cyanamide was the same as that produced by acetaldehyde (30-40%). In the presence of cyanamide, acetaldehyde was no longer inhibitory, suggesting that acetaldehyde and cyanamide may act at the same site(s) and inhibit the same formaldehyde-oxidizing enzyme system. These results suggest that, in rat hepatocytes, formaldehyde is oxidized by cyanamide- and acetaldehyde-sensitive (low-Km aldehyde dehydrogenase) and insensitive (formaldehyde dehydrogenase) reactions, and that both enzymes appear to contribute about equally toward the overall metabolism of formaldehyde. 相似文献
