Temperature dependence of ADP/ATP translocation in mitochondria. 1982

M Klingenberg, and K Grebe, and M Appel

The temperature dependence of the adenine nucleotide exchange in mitochondria has been determined by employing a rapid mixing, quenching and sampling apparatus and the inhibitor quench-back exchange method. Thus the exchange is resolved down to 0.1 s. Rates are evaluated from accumulating the time-dependent progress at about 10 points. The exchange rate in liver mitochondria was determined from -10 degrees C to + 10 degrees C in the presence of 20% glycol, from 0 degrees C to 25 degrees C, and from 20 degrees C to 40 degrees C under partial inhibition by carboxyatractylate. The total range between -10 degrees C to + 40 degrees C has only one temperature break at 13 degrees C. From the Arrhenius plot between -10 degrees C to + 13 degrees C, EA approximately equal to 140 kJ and above 13 degrees C, EA approximately equal to 56 kJ is evaluated, corresponding to a Q10 of 8 and 2 respectively. In beef heart mitochondria the exchange rate was measured between 0 degrees C and 20 degrees C, and between 15 degrees C and 30 degrees C under partial inhibition with carboxyatractylate. There is a temperature break around 14 degrees C with EA approximately equal to 143 kJ between 0 degrees C and 14 degrees C and EA approximately equal to 60 kJ from 15 degrees C to 30 degrees C. The extrapolated translocation rates at 37 degrees C are 500 and 1800 mumol min-1 (g protein)-1 for rat liver and for beef heart mitochondria respectively. The temperature break is suggested to reflect a conformation change since there is no reversed break at low temperature, the temperature break changes in sonic particles and no lipid phase transition at 14 degrees C in mitochondria has been reported.

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.

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.

D000226	Mitochondrial ADP, ATP Translocases	A class of nucleotide translocases found abundantly in mitochondria that function as integral components of the inner mitochondrial membrane. They facilitate the exchange of ADP and ATP between the cytosol and the mitochondria, thereby linking the subcellular compartments of ATP production to those of ATP utilization.
