Metmyoglobin Oxidation during Electron Transport Reactions in Mitochondria
Studies of the intracellular role of myoglobin were carried out by recording spectrophotometric changes in acid metmyoglobin and oxymyoglobin during electron transport reactions with mitochondria prepared from pigeon heart muscle by the method of Chance and Hagihara. The absorption peak of metmyoglobin at 409 mmicro disappeared when substrate was added to normal or antimycin-inhibited preparati...
متن کاملDNA oxidation by charge transport in mitochondria.
Sites of oxidative DNA damage in functioning mitochondria have been identified using a rhodium photooxidant as a probe. Here we show that a primer extension reaction can be used to monitor oxidative DNA damage directly in functioning mitochondria after photoreaction with a rhodium intercalator that penetrates the intact mitochondrial membrane. The complex [Rh(phi)2bpy]Cl3 (phi = 9,10-phenanthre...
متن کاملThe mechanism of metmyoglobin oxidation.
The chemical behavior of metmyoglobin has received considerable attention, notably by Keilin and Hartree (1) and by George (2) and George and Irvine (3-5), on the grounds that it has the same prosthetic group as peroxidase and catalase and reacts with II&&, but at a rate more convenient for kinetic investigation. Although the mechanism of HzOz decomposition has proved t.o be different, this in ...
متن کاملMalate Oxidation in Plant Mitochondria via Malic Enzyme and the Cyanide-insensitive Electron Transport Pathway.
MALATE OXIDATION IN PLANT MITOCHONDRIA PROCEEDS THROUGH THE ACTIVITIES OF TWO ENZYMES: a malate dehydrogenase and a NAD(+)-dependent malic enzyme. In cauliflower, mitochondria malate oxidation via malate dehydrogenase is rotenone- and cyanide-sensitive. Addition of exogenous NAD(+) stimulates the oxidation of malate via malic enzyme and generates an electron flux that is both rotenone- and cyan...
متن کاملPyruvate and malate transport and oxidation in corn mitochondria.
Pyruvate oxidation and swelling in pyruvate solutions by corn (Zea mays) mitochondria were inhibited by alpha-cyano-4-hydroxy-cinnamic acid, an inhibitor of pyruvate transport in animal mitochondria; however, there was no inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase activity, and malate and NADH oxidation were not affected. These results suggest the presence of a pyruvate(-)-OH(-) exchange transporter ...
