Inorganic phosphate concentrations and the values of energy charge were determined in the cytosolic and mitochondrial compartments of Ehrlich ascites tumour cells incubated with 5 mM glucose and/or 0.5 mM glutamine. The initial value of inorganic phosphate concentration in the cytosolic compartment decreased in the three incubation conditions assayed; this decrease was greater when glucose was present in the incubation medium. Mitochondrial inorganic phosphate concentration diminished in incubations with only glucose and raised in incubations with only glutamine.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008928 Mitochondria Semiautonomous, self-reproducing organelles that occur in the cytoplasm of all cells of most, but not all, eukaryotes. Each mitochondrion is surrounded by a double limiting membrane. The inner membrane is highly invaginated, and its projections are called cristae. Mitochondria are the sites of the reactions of oxidative phosphorylation, which result in the formation of ATP. They contain distinctive RIBOSOMES, transfer RNAs (RNA, TRANSFER); AMINO ACYL T RNA SYNTHETASES; and elongation and termination factors. Mitochondria depend upon genes within the nucleus of the cells in which they reside for many essential messenger RNAs (RNA, MESSENGER). Mitochondria are believed to have arisen from aerobic bacteria that established a symbiotic relationship with primitive protoeukaryotes.
