| Abstract: | Phospholipids in mitochondria can be exchanged with those in two microsomal fractions from rough endoplasmic reticulum (rough microsomes) and smooth endoplasmic reticulum (smooth microsomes) in vitro in the presence of cell supernatant. The amounts of phospholipids transferred from each submicrosomal fraction to nitochondria were slightly different. The compositions of the phospholipids transferred to mitochondria from both microsomal fractions were the same, though these two fractions actually had different phospholipid compositions. |
