Interaction of bovine serum albumin with PGBx (polymeric 15-keto-prostaglandin B1). 1981

H W Shmukler, and M G Zawryt, and E Soffer, and W Feely, and E Polis

Bovine serum albumin (BSA) interacts with PGBx, a polymeric derivative of 15-keto-prostaglandin B1, to form a complex that does not exhibit the fluorescence of free BSA. The complex is soluble at pH 5.2 in contrast to free PGBx, which is insoluble. Molar ratio of the BSA-PGBx complex is 1:18. This complexing appears to suppress the ability shown by non-complexed PGBx to reactivate phosphorylation in degraded isolated rat liver mitochondria.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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.
