The ratio of inner to outer mitochondrial membrane area remains close to 1-8 throughout the cell cycle in synchronized cells of Chlorella fusca var, vacuolata 211-8p. Using estimates of this ratio, together with our previous estimates of mitochondrial surface area, to calculate the absolute area of inner mitochondrial membrane, it is demonstrated that growth of the inner mitochondrial membrane during the cell cycle occupies an extended period and parallels the growth of the whole cell. In contrast, the synthesis of succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase is restricted to the last third of the cell cycle. It is concluded that mitochondrial growth involves the intercalation of periodically synthesized respiratory enzymes into membranes made earlier in the cycle, with consequent 5-fold changes in the density of active enzyme molecules in the membrane. These observations are discussed in relation to the control of mitochondiral membrane synthesis, membrane assembly and respiration rate during the cell cycle.

The specific activity of human platelet monoamine oxidase from control subjects undergoing glucose tolerance tests is reduced drastically. Three hours after intake of 100 g of glucose only 25%-30% of the MAO-baseline activity was measured with tryptamine. beta-phenylethylamine and p-tyramine as substrates. At about 5 hr, platelet MAO activity has increased again. Inhibition was not due to small molecular weight inhibitors or other diffusible factors. Studies of other platelet enzymes, including succinate dehydrogenase and isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP+ dependent) showed no parallel reductions; hGH, insulin, blood glucose and platelet glycogen concentrations did not correlate with platelet MAO activity. The changes of MAO activity in respect with p-tyramine and tryptamine as substrates 24 hr after glucose ingestion suggest changes of the lipid microenvironment of this enzyme of the outer mitochondrial membrane.

Effect of feeding rice diet with and without lysine and threonine supplementation on hepatic mitochondria and its inner and outer membrane proteins, enzymes and phospholipids has been studied. The exchange of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine between microsomes and mitochondria has also been studied under these conditions. Deficient diet lead to significant decrease in proteins as well as activities of monoamine oxidase, succinate dehydrogenase, cytochrome a + a3 and cytochrome c in mitochondria and its inner and outer membranes. Feeding of the deficient diet also significantly reduced total phospholipids and PC in mitochondria and its outer mitochondrial membrane. In the inner mitochondrial membrane, only PE and cardiolipin were reduced. The incorporation (DPM/microgram PLP) of [methyl-3H]choline and [methyl-14C]methionine into PC of mitochondria and its outer membrane and that of 32Pi into PC and PE of outer mitochondrial membrane but only into PC of inner mitochondrial membrane were significantly reduced in the deficient group. The exchange rates of PC and PE between microsomes and mitochondria were reduced in the deficient group. Supplementation of the deficient diet with lysine and threonine profoundly improved the above biochemical lesions as compared to casein fed rats.

Previously we purified a cytosolic factor that stimulates the import of the extrapeptide (the synthetic peptide of the presequence of ornithine aminotransferase) into the mitochondrial matrix (Ono, H., and Tuboi, S., 1988, J. Biol. Chem. 263, 3188-3193). In this work this cytosolic factor was shown also to stimulate the import of the precursors of ornithine aminotransferase, a large subunit of succinate dehydrogenase, and sulfite oxidase. The amounts of these precursors bound to the outer mitochondrial membrane were increased by this cytosolic factor, suggesting that the cytosolic factor participates in the recognition step in the import process of the precursor protein. When the cytosolic factor was applied to an ATP-agarose column, the import-stimulating activity was recovered entirely in the unadsorbed fraction. Immunochemical studies showed that in these conditions the 70-kDa heat shock-related protein (Hsp 70) was present exclusively in the fraction adsorbed to the ATP-agarose column. The cytosolic factor is thus different from the 70-kDa heat shock-related protein, which was identified as a factor required for the import of mitochondrial proteins in yeast. The cytosolic factor was also detected in the cytosol of rat liver cells, and a considerable amount of this factor was recovered from rat liver mitochondria by washing them with high salt buffer, suggesting that the cytosolic factor has affinity to the outer mitochondrial membrane and binds to its receptor on the membrane. From these results, we conclude that the cytosolic factor forms a complex with the precursor of mitochondrial protein and then this complex binds to the outer mitochondrial membrane, probably via the receptor of the cytosolic factor.

Binding of [3H]Ro5-4864, a specific ligand for "peripheral type" benzodiazepine receptors, was determined in subcellular fractions of guinea pig lung. Even though the level of binding was predominant in the mitochondrial fraction, nuclear and cytosolic fractions also contained significantly measurable amounts of binding sites. The presence of binding sites in the microsomal fraction and in a fraction intermediate in density between the mitochondria and microsomes depended on which buffer was used to homogenize the tissue. If calcium-containing mannitol buffer was used, binding was negligible in the postmitochondrial organelles. However, in the case of sucrose buffer which did not contain any calcium, the postmitochondrial organelle fractions contained measurable amounts of binding sites. Most probably, these binding sites were of mitochondrial and nuclear origin. Furthermore, binding sites in the mitochondria were associated with the succinic dehydrogenase-enriched mitochondrial inner membrane, but not with the monoamine oxidase- and cholinephosphotransferase-enriched outer mitochondrial membrane. Furthermore, several proteolytic enzymes caused a decrease in binding of the ligand to the mitochondrial membrane only under hypotonic conditions and not under isotonic conditions, suggesting that the location of the receptors is inside the mitochondria.

1. We performed an enzymatic characterization of two different fractionation procedures of ventricles from rat hearts. The enzymatic assays covered succinic dehydrogenase as a marker for inner mitochondrial membranes, monoamine oxidase as a marker for outer mitochondrial membranes, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and RNA as endoplasmatic reticular markers, acid phosphatase as a lysosomal marker, and lactic dehydrogenase as a marker for the "soluble" compartment; DNA was estimated for nuclear contamination. 2. The plasma membrane markers 5'-nucleotidase, Ca2+-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase, Na+-K+-ATPase, and adenylate cyclase were determined. 3. The roughly prepared membrane fractions showed increased yields of the membrane markers; the number of beta receptors, determined with (-)-[3H] dihydroalprenolol and DL-propranolol, amounted to 68 +/- 6 fmol/mg protein (KD = 3390 +/- 450 pmol, Hill coefficient = 1.5). 4. The membrane fraction prepared with a linear sucrose gradient showed an increased inner mitochondrial membrane marker; presumably the outer mitochondrial membrane was stripped off. The beta-receptor number was 39 +/- 3 fmol/mg protein (KD = 6250 +/- 300 pmol; Hill coefficient = 1.2).

1. After conventional fractionation of rat liver homogenates in 0.88m-sucrose the mitochondrial fraction was subjected to short-term water lysis followed by separation of the resulting membrane preparations. 2. Phosphatidate formation was measured in all subcellular fractions and subfractions and was compared with the distribution of succinate dehydrogenase, monoamine oxidase, rotenone-insensitive NADH cytochrome c reductase, arylsulphatase, urate oxidase, arylesterase and glucose 6-phosphatase. 3. The results obtained indicated that mitochondria were capable of synthesizing phosphatidate, though this activity was only about one-third of the total homogenate activity. 4. Mitochondrial phosphatidate formation was located predominantly in the outer mitochondrial membrane. Although this membrane preparation was found to be significantly contaminated by the microsomal fraction, this contamination was estimated to account for not more than about 20% of the total phosphatidate formation observed in preparations of outer mitochondrial membrane.

The effects of chloramphenicol on S. cerevisiae and on a cytoplasmic respiratory-deficient mutant derived from the same strain are compared. In the normal yeast, high concentrations of chloramphenicol in the growth medium completely inhibit the formation of cytochromes a, a(3), b, and c(1) and partially inhibit succinate dehydrogenase formation, whereas they do not affect cytochrome c synthesis. This has been correlated with the marked reduction of mitochondrial cristae formation in the presence of the drug. In glucose-repressed normal yeast, chloramphenicol has little effect on the formation of outer mitochondrial membrane, or on the synthesis of malate dehydrogenase and fumarase. However, both these enzymes, as well as the number of mitochondrial profiles, are markedly decreased when glucose de-repressed yeast is grown in the presence of chloramphenicol. The antibiotic did not appear to affect the cytoplasmic respiratory-deficient mutant. The results have been interpreted to indicate that chloramphenicol inhibits the protein-synthesizing system characteristic of the mitochondria. Since the drug does not prevent the formation of cytochrome c, of several readily solubilized mitochondrial enzymes, or of outer mitochondrial membrane, it is suggested that these are synthesized by nonmitochondrial systems.

Functional integrity of liver cell organelles in rats given the model abrupt cytotoxin 1,1-dichloroethylene (1,1-DCE) was examined by enzymatic histochemistry. Fasted 200-gm. male Sprague-Dawley rats were sacrificed 1, 2, 4, or 6 hours after an oral dose of 200 mg. of 1,1-DCE per kg. (in mineral oil) and 6 hours after 50, 100, or 150 mg. of 1,1-DCE per kg. Cubes of liver were quick frozen for histochemistry. Stage or degree of liver injury was assessed by histology and by measuring serum transaminase activities and liver ion levels. We found both early injury (2 hours following the 200-mg. per kg. dose) and slight injury (6 hours following the 50-mg. per kg. dose) characterized by: increases in liver sodium levels and striking decreases in the central area staining patterns of bile canaliculi membrane Mg++-ATPase, as well as of outer mitochondrial membrane monoamine oxidase and inner mitochondrial membrane succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase. As injury progressed with time or increased in severity with dose, aberrations in the levels of other liver cell ions occurred, serum transaminase activities rose, and decreased staining of plasma membrane and mitochondrial membrane components were evident in progressively wider areas around the central vein. Glutathione depletion was panlobular. In contrast, only at later times (4 and 6 hours) and after the larger doses did alterations to functional components of the mitochondrial matrix, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, and cytosol become evident in a narrow area around the central vein, which became necrotic. We consider these later appearing alterations secondary consequences of the midzonal necrosis and sinusoidal congestion produced by 1,1-DCE, whereas the plasma membranes and mitochondrial membranes appear to be primary foci of injury.

Subcellular localization of hexokinase in the honeybee drone retina was examined following fractionation of cell homogenate using differential centrifugation. Nearly all hexokinase activity was found in the cytosolic fraction, following a similar distribution as the cytosolic enzymatic marker, phosphoglycerate kinase. The distribution of enzymatic markers of mitochondria (succinate dehydrogenase, rotenone-insensitive cytochrome c reductase, and adenylate kinase) indicated that the outer mitochondrial membrane was partly damaged, but their distributions were different from that of hexokinase. The activity of hexokinase in purified suspensions of cells was fivefold higher in glial cells than in photoreceptors. This result is consistent with the hypothesis based on quantitative 2-deoxy[3H]glucose autoradiography that only glial cells phosphorylate significant amounts of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate. The activities of alanine aminotransferase and to a lesser extent of glutamate dehydrogenase were higher in the cytosolic than in the mitochondrial fraction. This important cytosolic activity of glutamate dehydrogenase was consistent with the higher activity found in mitochondria-poor glial cells. In conclusion, this distribution of enzymes is consistent with the model of metabolic interactions between glial and photoreceptor cells in the intact bee retina.
