The Respiration Mechanism of Pneumococcus. Iii

From an examination of Tables I to III, and Figs. 1 to 4 and the consideration of various observations, the following facts are evident. A virulent pneumococcus on being transformed into its-avirulent form consumes many times more oxygen than the parent organism; but this gain of activity is a temporary property. After a time it degenerates into a form which consumes very much less oxygen than ...

The mechanism for the ATP-induced uncoupling of respiration in mitochondria of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

We have recently reported that ATP induces an uncoupling pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondria [Prieto, Bouillaud, Ricquier and Rial (1992) Eur. J. Biochem. 208, 487-491]. The presence of this pathway would explain the reported low efficiency of oxidative phosphorylation in S. cerevisiae, and may represent one of the postulated energy-dissipating mechanisms present in these yeasts. I...
