1. Injection of alpha-amanitin to mice causes a decreased incorporation of [6-(14)C]-orotic acid into liver RNA in vivo. 2. The activity of RNA polymerase activated by Mn(2+) and ammonium sulphate is greatly impaired in liver nuclei isolated from mice poisoned with alpha-amanitin, and is inhibited by the addition of the same toxin in vitro. 3. The activity of the Mg(2+)-activated RNA polymerase is only slightly affected by alpha-amanitin either administered to mice or added in vitro. 相似文献

Biochemical effects of PR toxin on rat liver mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The in vitro effects of PR toxin, a toxic secondary metabolite produced by certain strains of Penicillium roqueforti, on the membrane structure and function of rat liver mitochondria were investigated. It was found that the respiratory control and oxidative phosphorylation of the isolated mitochondria decreased concomitantly when the toxin was added to the assay system. The respiratory control ratio decreased about 60% and the ADP/O ratio decreased about 40% upon addition of 3.1 X 10(-5) M PR toxin to the highly coupled mitochondria. These findings suggest that PR toxin impairs the structural integrity of mitochondrial membranes. On the other hand, the toxin inhibited mitochondrial respiratory functions. It exhibited noncompetitive inhibitions to succinate oxidase, succinate-cytochrome c reductase, and succinate dehydrogenase activities of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. The inhibitory constants of PR toxin to these three enzyme systems were estimated to be 5.1 X 10(-6), 2.4 X 10(-5), and 5.2 X 10(-5) M, respectively. Moreover, PR toxin was found to change the spectral features of succinate-reduced cytochrome b and cytochrome c1 in succinate-cytochrome c reductase and inhibited the electron transfer between the two cytochromes. These observations indicate that the electron transfer function of succinate-cytochrome c reductase was perturbed by the toxin. However, PR toxin did not show significant inhibition of either cytochrome oxidase or NADH dehydrogenase activity of the mitochondria. It is thus concluded that PR toxin exerts its effect on the mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation through action on the membrane and the succinate-cytochrome c reductase complex of the mitochondria. 相似文献
