    The mechanism of action of mitochondrial ATPase (ATP synthase)

    The F1 part of the ATP synthase contains 6 nucleotide binding sites, four of which can be occupied and covalently labeled with 8-azido-adenine nucleotides. The other two sites contain tightly bound nucleotides th...

    Identification of the BAL-labile factor

    One of us has previously reported1 that treatment of the Keilin and Hartree heart–muscle preparation2 with 2,3-dimercaptopropanol (BAL), in the presence of air, leads to the complete inactivation of the succinate...

    High-energy Forms of Cytochrome b

    SUB-MITOCHONDRIAL particles prepared from horse or ox heart contain two species of cytochrome b in equal amounts, one (bi) affected by antimycin and the other (b) not affected1–3. In addition to its well known in...

    Labelling Rates and Detection of Intermediates in Mitochondrial Phosphorylations and other Sequential Reactions

    BASED on his observation that mitochondrial protein-bound phosphohistidine becomes maximally labelled with added radioactive inorganic phosphate before maximum labelling of the mitochondrial ATP is reached, Pr...

    Effect of Heavy Water on Respiratory-chain Enzymes

    DURING radiobiological work on bacteria it was found by one of us (H. L.) that the effect of ionizing radiation (X-rays) is greatly potentiated if the bacteria are irradiated in a medium in which water is repl...

    Need for Inorganic Phosphate in Oxidations stimulated by Dinitrophenol

    Recently we have reported, in disagreement with the widely accepted view, that the maximal rate of oxygen uptake by respiring rat-liver or rat-heart mitochondria with glutamate as substrate is not obtained wit...

    Tocopherol Content of Heart-muscle Preparations

    THE possible role of vitamin E in respiratory enzyme systems has often been suggested; but supporting evidence of the actual presence of vitamin E in active enzyme preparations has not been published. We have ...

    Respiratory Chain Phosphorylation in Extracts of Azotobacter vinelandii

    RESPIRATORY chain phosphorylation has been demonstrated in crude extracts of a few bacterial species1–4, and in one case the extract was separated into three components which were all necessary for phosphorylatio...
