چکیده

membrane component in membranes from aerobic mitochondria depleted of F: has a molecular weight of 45000, and that this is converted to a low-molecular-weight component by treatment with organic solvents, as found in biogenesis experiments establishing the mitochondria1 synthesis of subunit 9 (Tzagoloff & Akai, 1972). The number of components in the 45000-molecular-weight component and in the 8000molecular-weight subunits derived from it has not been determined.

Thyroid-hormone control of state-3 respiration in isolated rat liver mitochondria.

Oxidative phosphorylation can be treated as two groups of reactions; those that generate protonmotive force (dicarboxylate carrier, succinate dehydrogenase and the respiratory chain) and those that consume protonmotive force (adenine nucleotide and phosphate carriers. ATP synthase and proton leak). Mitochondria from hypothyroid rats have lower rates of respiration in the presence of ADP (state ...

Geology and Mineralization of Bikilal phosphate deposit, Western Ethiopia, implication and outline of gabbro intrusion to East Africa zone

The Bikilal layered gabbro-complex is composed of zones/layers of olivine/ pyroxene gabbro and hornblende gabbro. Within the hornblende gabbro, repeated lens-like thin and elongated bodies of hornblendite are found intimately associated with massive and disseminated ilmenite-magnetite bodies, in places with apatite. Petrological examination of the hornblende gabbro shows 50-55% hornblende, 40-4...

The relationship between the rate of respiration and the protonmotive force. The role of proton conductivity.

It is shown by titrating a suspension of rat liver mitochondria with either ADP or an uncoupler that a specific rate of respiration may not have a unique associated value of the protonmotive force. Alternatively, a specific protonmotive force may not be associated with a unique rate of respiration. It seems that the rate of respiration and the protonmotive force are more sensitive to the agents...

The effect of sorbic acid and esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid on the protonmotive force in Escherichia coli membrane vesicles.

The effect of three food preservatives, sorbic acid and methyl and butyl esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, on the protonmotive force in Escherichia coli membrane vesicles was investigated. Radioactive chemical probes were used to determine the two components of the protonmotive force: delta pH (pH difference) and delta psi (membrane potential). Both types of compound selectively eliminated delta...

Protonmotive force as the source of energy for adenosine 5'-triphosphate synthesis in Escherichia coli.

Net synthesis of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) in energy-depleted cells of Escherichia coli was observed when an inwardly directed protonmotive force was artificially imposed. In wild-type cells, ATP synthesis occurred whether the protonmotive force was dominated by the membrane potential (negative inside) or the pH gradient (alkaline inside). Formation of ATP did not occur unless the protonm...
