    Formation of Palmitic Acid/Ca2+ Complexes in the Mitochondrial Membrane: A Possible Role in the Cyclosporin-Insensitive Permeability Transition

    A possible role of palmitic acid/Ca2+ (PA/Ca2+) complexes in the cyclosporin-insensitive permeability transition in mitochondria has been studied. It has been shown that in the presence of Ca2+, PA induces a swel...

    Palmitic and Stearic Acids Bind Ca2+ with High Affinity and Form Nonspecific Channels in Black-Lipid Membranes. Possible Relation to Ca2+-Activated Mitochondrial Pores

    A mitochondrial hydrophobic component that forms Ca2+-induced nonspecific ion channels in black-lipid membranes (Mironova et al., 1997) has been purified and its nature elucidated. It consists of long-chain satur...

    Oscillating Ca2+-Induced Channel Activity Obtained in BLM with a Mitochondrial Membrane Component

    Oscillations in ion fluxes and membrane potential may be observed in cells and in mitochondria as well. We obtained Ca2+-induced oscillations in channel activity in black-lipid membranes reconstituted with hydrop...
