Mitochondrial respiration at low levels of oxygen and cytochrome c.
In the intracellular microenvironment of active muscle tissue, high rates of respiration are maintained at near-limiting oxygen concentrations. The respiration of isolated heart mitochondria is a hyperbolic function of oxygen concentration and half-maximal rates were obtained at 0.4 and 0.7 microM O(2) with substrates for the respiratory chain (succinate) and cytochrome c oxidase [N,N,N,N',N'-t...
متن کاملAquatic Respiration Rate Measurements at Low Oxygen Concentrations
Despite its huge ecological importance, microbial oxygen respiration in pelagic waters is little studied, primarily due to methodological difficulties. Respiration measurements are challenging because of the required high resolution of oxygen concentration measurements. Recent improvements in oxygen sensing techniques bear great potential to overcome these limitations. Here we compare 3 differe...
متن کاملOxygen-dependent reversible inhibition of mitochondrial respiration by nitric oxide.
Effects of nitric oxide (NO) and NO generating agents, on the electron transport system of mitochondria were examined in a study of the mechanism and physiological importance of NO in energy metabolism. In the presence of various substrates, uncoupled respiration was inhibited by NO in manner which was both dose- and oxygen tension-dependent. Simultaneously measuring changes in cytochrome absor...
متن کاملAquatic nitrogen transformations at low oxygen concentrations.
Nitrite and nitrous oxide made up 40% of the hypolimnetic dissolved inorganic nitrogen in mesotrophic Lake Rotoiti, New Zealand, prior to hypolimnetic anoxia. Up to 120 mg of N m-3 as nitrite and 20 mg of N m-3 as nitrous oxide accumulated, whereas dissolved-oxygen concentrations remained between 1.0 and 0.2 g m-3 and were totally consumed when the hypolimnion became completely anoxic. Assays o...
متن کاملSelection of antibiotic resistance at very low antibiotic concentrations
Human use of antibiotics has driven the selective enrichment of pathogenic bacteria resistant to clinically used drugs. Traditionally, the selection of resistance has been considered to occur mainly at high, therapeutic levels of antibiotics, but we are now beginning to understand better the importance of selection of resistance at low levels of antibiotics. The concentration of an antibiotic v...
