Oxidation of formate by peroxisomes and mitochondria from spinach leaves.
1. Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) leaf extracts catalyse the oxidation of formate to CO(2). 2. Two enzymic systems are responsible for this oxidation, the peroxidatic action of catalase (EC 1.11.1.6) and NAD-dependent formate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.2). 3. Formate dehydrogenase is mainly, if not exclusively, located in the mitochondria. This enzyme has a pH optimum of 6-6.5 and a K(m) for forma...
متن کاملInduction of Peroxisomes by Butyrate-Producing Probiotics
We previously found that peroxisomal biogenesis factor 11a (Pex11a) deficiency is associated with a reduction in peroxisome abundance and impaired fatty acid metabolism in hepatocytes, and results in steatosis. In the present study, we investigated whether butyrate induces Pex11a expression and peroxisome proliferation, and studied its effect on lipid metabolism. C57BL/6 mice fed standard chow ...
متن کاملRedox interplay between mitochondria and peroxisomes
Reduction-oxidation or "redox" reactions are an integral part of a broad range of cellular processes such as gene expression, energy metabolism, protein import and folding, and autophagy. As many of these processes are intimately linked with cell fate decisions, transient or chronic changes in cellular redox equilibrium are likely to contribute to the initiation and progression of a plethora of...
متن کاملDual targeting of yeast catalase A to peroxisomes and mitochondria.
Yeast catalase A (Cta1p) contains two peroxisomal targeting signals (SSNSKF) localized at its C-terminus and within the N-terminal third of the protein, which both can target foreign proteins to peroxisomes. In the present study we demonstrated that Cta1p can also enter mitochondria, although the enzyme lacks a classical mitochondrial import sequence. Cta1p co-targeting was studied in a catalas...
متن کاملInteraction between peroxisomes and mitochondria in fatty acid metabolism
Peroxisomes and mitochondria are ubiquitously found organelles. They both are dynamic structures able to divide, to fuse and to undergo autophagic processes. Their activities are dependent on proteins that are, for most (mitochondria) or all (peroxisome) of them, synthesized in the cytosol from the nuclear genome. Nevertheless, the membrane structures and the DNA content differ between these tw...
