Oxidative phosphorylation by mitochondria extracted from dry sunflower seeds.
The role of mitochondria in the phosphorylation of ADP to ATP in the early steps of seed germination has been studied. Mitochondria were extracted from dry sunflower (Helianthus annuus) seeds. Adenylate kinase-dependent ATP synthesis was inhibited by p(1),p(5)-di(adenosine-5')pentaphosphate. Synthesis of ATP was observed with the different substrates: citrate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinate, ma...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Non Saponifiable Matter of Oils Extracted from Nine Varieties of Sunflower Seeds
ABSTRACT: In this study the non-saponifiable matter of oils extracted from nine varieties of sunflower seed were subjected a series of chemical tests. The non-saponifiable matters were fractionated into a number of chemical classes of compounds namely sterols, 4 methyl sterols, triterpene alcohols, tocopherols and hydrocarbons. The two major and important classes of compounds consisting of ster...
متن کاملThiamin-binding protein from sunflower seeds.
A thiamin-binding protein was isolated from sunflower seeds. Its molecular mass was estimated to be 230 kDa by gel filtration. The protein was suggested to be composed of six subunits, which consisted of polypeptides linked by disulfide bond(s). The protein contained a large amount of glutamine or glutamic acid (19.9 mol%) and asparagine or aspartic acid (11.1 mol%). The levels of tryptophan an...
متن کاملNormal Oxidative Phosphorylation in Mitochondria from the Failing Heart
Oxidative phosphorylation was measured polarographically in mitochondria isolated from normal ventricles and from the ventricles of guinea pigs and cats with experimental heart failure produced by constriction of the aorta or pulmonary artery. The presence of heart failure was proved by the study of myocardial mechanics in vitro, by cardiac catheterization, and by post-mortem examination. Mitoc...
متن کاملIntermediate reactions of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria from cabbage.
Respiratory control ratios between 2.0 and 9.0 were obtained by comparison of the respiratory rates of cabbage mitochondria in the presence and in the absence of individual components of the system used to provide ADP and by comparing the rates before and after exhaustion of added ADP. These results indicate that respiration in cabbage mitochondria is controlled by the availability of ADP, whic...
