Structures and proton-pumping strategies of mitochondrial respiratory enzymes.
Enzymes of the mitochondrial respiratory chain serve as proton pumps, using the energy made available from electron transfer reactions to transport protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane and create an electrochemical gradient used for the production of ATP. The ATP synthase enzyme is reversible and can also serve as a proton pump by coupling ATP hydrolysis to proton translocation. Each...
متن کاملKetones prevent synaptic dysfunction induced by mitochondrial respiratory complex inhibitors
Ketones have previously shown beneficial effects in models of neurodegenerative disorders, particularly against associated mitochondrial dysfunction and cognitive impairment. However, evidence of a synaptic protective effect of ketones remains lacking. We tested the effects of ketones on synaptic impairment induced by mitochondrial respiratory complex (MRC) inhibitors using electrophysiological...
متن کاملMitochondrial respiratory chain inhibitors modulate the metal-induced inner mitochondrial membrane permeabilization.
To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of the protective action of stigmatellin (an inhibitor of complex III of mitochondrial electron transport chain, mtETC) against the heavy metal-induced cytotoxicity, we tested its effectiveness against mitochondrial membrane permeabilization produced by heavy metal ions Cd²(+), Hg²(+), Cu²(+) and Zn²(+), as well as by Ca²(+) (in the presence of P(i)) or Se ...
متن کاملInhibitors of the Transcribing Enzymes
The enzymes which transcribe DNA synthesizing RNA (DNA-dependent RNA polymerases) have structural differences in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, as indicated by the fact, among others, that there are substances which inhibit their function selectively in prokaryotic cells (streptolydigin and the ansa antibiotics, such as rifamycins and streptovaricin) and in eukaryotic cells (-amanitin). Ansa...
متن کاملInhibitors of Milk-curdling Enzymes
The inhibitory effect of animal antiproteases such as those of blood serum and egg white is well known. Antiproteases, however, of protein nature similar to these have not been found in plants. The study of antiproteases is important in explaining certain biological phenomena. In the present paper we wish to report on a plant antiprotease which exerts a powerful inhibition on the milk-coagulati...
