Resolution of rat mitochondrial matrix proteins by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 1979

J G Henslee, and P A Srere

The mitochondrial matrix subfractions from rat liver, kidney cortex, brain, heart, and skeletal muscle were isolated and their protein components were resolved by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, revealing between 120 and 150 components for each matrix subfraction. Excellent resolution was obtained utilizing a pH 5 to 8 gradient in the first dimension and in 8 to 13% exponential acrylamide gradient in the second dimension, increasing the number of mitochondrial matrix proteins observed 3-fold over one-dimensional systems. Protein components tentatively identified by co-migration with pure enzymes and by known tissue distributions are carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase (EC 2.7.2.5), ornithine transcarbamylase (EC 2.1.3.3), glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.3), pyruvate carboxylase (EC 6.4.1.1), citrate synthase (EC 4.1.3.7), fumarase (EC 4.2.1.2), aconitase (EC 4.2.1.3), alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.4.2), dihydrolipoyl transsuccinylase (EC 2.3.1.12), lipoamide dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.4.3), glutamate-aspartate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.1), and the two subunits of pyruvate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.4.1). Protein components unambiguously identified by peptide mapping are citrate synthase, aconitase, and pyruvate carboxylase. The inner membrane subfraction from rat liver mitochondria was also resolved two dimensionally; the alpha and beta subunits of ATPase (F1) (EC 3.6.1.3) were identified by peptide mapping.

D007525 Isoelectric Focusing Electrophoresis in which a pH gradient is established in a gel medium and proteins migrate until they reach the site (or focus) at which the pH is equal to their isoelectric point. Electrofocusing,Focusing, Isoelectric
D008929 Mitochondria, Heart The mitochondria of the myocardium. Heart Mitochondria,Myocardial Mitochondria,Mitochondrion, Heart,Heart Mitochondrion,Mitochondria, Myocardial
D008930 Mitochondria, Liver Mitochondria in hepatocytes. As in all mitochondria, there are an outer membrane and an inner membrane, together creating two separate mitochondrial compartments: the internal matrix space and a much narrower intermembrane space. In the liver mitochondrion, an estimated 67% of the total mitochondrial proteins is located in the matrix.
