The histrochemistry of the adrenal glands was studied in four adult male marmosets (two Callithrix jacchus and two Callithrix penicillata). It was impossible to demonstrate any reactivity to UDPG-GT, ADH, alanyl aminopeptidase, leucine aminopeptidase, xilitol (NAD-dependent) dehydrogenase, beta-glucuronidase and aryl-sulfatase in these glands. Total phosphorylase was found in scattered cells of the glomerulosa and adjacent outer fasciculata of one C. penicillata. The dehydrogenases (LDH, G-6-PDH,6-PGDH, NADPH2-TR,ICDH,SDH,NADH2-TR, alpha-GPDH, beta-OHBDH) as well as the hydrolases (except alkaline phosphatase, ATPase, and acetylcholinesterase) showed a stonger reactivity in the cortical part. Some hydrolases (naphthol acetate esterase, acid phosphatase) and cytochrome oxidase were less reactive in the zona glomerulosa, where the dehydrogenases were more abundant. The outer fasciculata and the reticularis also showed a strong dehydrogenase reactivity.

1. Generation of a transmembrane electric potential difference by oligomycin-sensitive ATPase complex, incorporated into spherical or planar phospholipid membrane, has been demonstrated. To this end, penetrating anion probe and direct voltmeter measurement of electric potential across phospholipid membrane were used. It was found that ATP-induced electric response is sensitive to oligomycin and protonophorous uncouplers. 2. The effect of variations in the phospholipid component of proteoliposomes on the electric generation was studied. It was revealed that the usage of mitochondrial phospholipids and phosphatidylethanolamine allows the highest values of membrane potential to be obtained in the case of ATPase proteoliposomes. In the case of cytochrome oxidase and bacteriorhodopsin proteoliposomes, phosphatidylserine was also shown to be quite suitable. Phosphatidylcholine was absolutely ineffective in all cases. 3. In proteoliposomes, containing both ATPase and bacteriorhodopsin, ATP and light induced generation of the electric field of the same direction. 4. In ATPase + cytochrome oxidase proteoliposomes, ATP hydrolysis and ascorbate oxidation was found to support electric generation of the same direction if cytochrome c was inside vesicles. Oxidation via external cytochrome c resulted in formation of electric field of the direction, opposite to that induced by ATP hydrolysis. 5. The data obtained in experiments with proteoliposomes of different types are discussed. The conclusion is made that conversion of energy of different resources into electric form is a common feature of membraneous energy transducers, which is in agreement with the Mitchellian principle of cellular energetics.

1. Oxidative phosphorylation was reconstituted with a mitochondrial proton pump (oligomycin-sensitive ATPase) and segments of the oxidation chain (cytochrome oxidase or DPNH-Q1 reductase). A proton pump of bacteriorhodopsin substituted for the respiratory chain components, giving rise to light-induced ATP formation. 2. Since oxidative phosphorylation has thus become a special case of the problem of ion translocation in general, we have investigated and reconsituted other pumps. The reconstituted Ca++ pump of sarcoplasmic reticulum consists of two factors, the Ca++-dependent ATPase and a heat-stable coupling factor. 3. Other information obtained from reconstitution experiments include the role of asymmetry in organized membranes and the specificity of protein-phospholipid interaction. 4. Purified preparations of Ca++-ATPase catalyze the formation of ATP from Pi and ADP in a stepwise reaction stoichiometric with the enzyme and dependent on Ca++.

Very pure preparations of synaptic vesicles have been obtained from guinea pig cerebral cortex and from the electromotor synapses of Torpedo marmorata by density gradient centrifugation in a zonal rotor followed by chromatography on columns of glass beads of controlled pore size. Markers for soluble cytoplasm (lactate dehydrogenase), plasma and endoplasmic membranes membranes (Na-K-ATPase; acetylcholinesterase, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase], mitochondrial membranes [cytochrome oxidase] and lysosomes [acid phosphatase] were used to assess contamination and were undetectable. The only enzymes detected in the highly purified preparations from guinea pig cerebral cortex were Mg- and Ca-activated ATPases, but their content relative to acetylcholine fell on chromatography suggesting that they may be constituents of non-cholinergic vesicles. Lipids analyses of the highly purified vesicles confirmed earlier results and showed that glycolipids and lysolecithin are present in negligible amounts; this suggests that lysolecithin is not required for exocytosis of synaptic vesicles. A discussion of the probable limiting concentration of acetycholine in cerebral cortical vesicles derived solely from cholinergic terminals suggests that from 13 to 56% of the vesicles isolated are cholinergic, depending on the assumptions made.

Four cytoplasmic mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae showing loss of mitochondrial rutamycin-sensitive ATPase activity but having significant cytochrome oxidase and NADH-cytochrome c reductase have been isolated. Genetic studies indicate the mutations to be closely linked to each other and have been assigned to a new locus, PHO1. The mutations show a low frequency of recombination with the OL12 locus, suggesting a linkage to this marker. They are not, however, linked to the OLI1 locus. Linkage of the ATPase mutations to the OLI2 locus is also indicated by restoration of wild-type diploids by sigma- clones that retain the segment of mitochondrial DNA carrying OLI2. Based on the recombinants issued from crosses of the mutants with a triple drug-resistant strain and an analysis of the resistance markers present in sigma- clones that are effective in restoring a wild-type phenotype, the PHO1 locus has been placed in the segment of DNA located between PAR1 and OLI2.

The histochemistry of the neural cells was studied in the submandibular ganglia of 5 Callithrix jacchus (3 males and 2 females) and 4 Callithrix penicillata (2 males and 2 females). These cells contain neutral mucopolysaccharides, nucleoproteins and lipidic materia, but are apparently devoid of glycogen. It is impossible to demonstrate in them any reactivity for UDPG-GT, phosphorylases, ATPase at pH 6.3, leucine aminopeptidase and alanyl aminopeptidas. The reaction for the other searched enzymes was as follows: weak (F-1,6-P Ald and cytochrome oxidase), weak to moderate (ADH, 6-P-GDH, ICDH, SDH, MDH, alpha-GPDH and beta-OHBDH), moderate (G-6-PDH, F-1,6-PA, LDH and GDH), moderate to strong (ATPase at pH 7.4, nonspecific esterase and acid phosphatase) and strong (G-6-PA, NADH2,-TR, NADPH2-TR, ATPase at pH 8.5 and 9.4 and alkaline phosphatase).

Histochemical investigation of rat skeletal muscle samples removed immediately post mortem from exercised rats gave the following results: (1) Of the oxidoreductase enzymes studied, there was a slight increase in the activity of cytochrome oxidase. (2) There was no change in the acid- and alkali-stable actomyosin ATPase activity. (3) There was a notable decrease in glycogen concentration. In the case of strychnine intoxication: (1) There was no change in oxidoreductase enzymes. (2) There was an increase in the activity of alkali-stable ATPase in white fibres. (3) The glycogen concentration notably decreased. There was no change in the activity of enzymes studied in those animals sacrificed by anoxia.

Filtration-enrichment and inositol-less death methods of mutant isolation, coupled with a screen for cyanide-insensitive respiration, proved to be highly efficient methods for isolating temperature-sensitive (ts) nuclear Neurospora mutants having defective respiration. Eighteen different ts respiratory mutants have been isolated. Most of them are pleiotropic and defective in one or more of the following phenotypes: cytochrome aa3, b, and c (individual or multiple defects); oligomycin inhibition of ATPase activity; respiration and its inhibition by KCN and salicyl hydroxamic acid; and growth rates in liquid and solid media at 25 degrees and 38 degrees. Among these mutants are the first cytochrome c mutant of Neurospora and an extranuclear ts ATPase mutant. An added bonus was the fact that over half of the mutants were affected either in ribosome assembly or in protein synthesis in the mitochondrion. We have yet to find any mutants completely lacking activities associated with the respiratory chain. However, the wide spectrum of mutants isolated here, along with those currently available, constitutes a considerable resource for investigating respiration in obligate aerobes.

Mutants of Saccharomyces cereviaiae showing defects in cytochrome oxidase, coenzyme QH2-cytochrome c reductase, and rutamycin-sensitive ATPase are described. The mutations have been established to be nuclear, based on complementation with a cytoplasmic petite tester strain and 2:2 segregation of tetrads. Genetic analysis indicate the coenzyme QH2-cytochrome c reductase and cytochrome oxidase mutants fall into 9 and 10 different complementation groups, respectively. The mutants also form distinct classes based on absorption spectra of the mitochondrial cytochromes. Two of the ATPase mutants lack detectable F1 ATPase, while the third synthesizes F1 but does not integrate it into a membrane complex. The latter mutant is missing one of the mitochondrially synthesized subunits of the rutamycin-sensitive ATPase complex.

Mutants of Saccharomyces cervisiae with defects in enzymes of the electron transfer chain and in the rutamycin-sensitive ATPase have been isolated. Some of the mutants are specifically affected in either cytochrome oxidase, coenzyme QH2-cytochrome c reductase or ATPase. Other strains are deficient in both cytochrome oxidase and coenzyme QH2-cytochrome c reductase but still have rutamycin-sensitive ATPase. All the mutants reported in this study fail to be complemented by a rho0 tester derived from a respiratory competent strain. The meiotic spore progeny obtained by mating the mutants to a respiratory competent haploid yeast, when scored for growth on glycerol, show a non-Mendelian segregation of the phenotype. These two genetic tests indicate the mutations to be cytoplasmically inherited.
