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.

Kinetic studies of the individual reaction of pig heart pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (pyruvate dehydrogenase (pyruvate:lipoamide oxidoreductase (decarboxylating and acceptor-acetylating), EC 1.2.4.1); dihydrolipoamide reductase(NAD+) (NADH:lipoamide oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.4.3); dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (acetyl-CoA:dihydrolipoamide S-acetyltransferase, EC 2.3.1.12)), citrate synthase (citrate oxaloacetate-lyase (pro-3S-CH2COO- leads to acetyl-CoA), EC 4.1.3.7) and the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex-citrate synthase coupled system show that the KmCoA value of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and KmCoASAc value of citrate synthase decrease in the coupled system when compared to those in the individual enzyme reactions. The explanation for this interaction may be an association between the two enzymes. When it was centrifuged with 150 000 x g for 140 min, 30% of the citrate synthase sedimented in the presence of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, while no sedimentation was observed in the absence of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. Sedimentation of cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase, phosphotransacetylase, hemoglobin and Blue albumin were negligible under the same condition. In gel chromatography experiments a significant peak of citrate synthase activity co-migrated with the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex peak. This observation also suggests the possible association of two enzymes.
