Uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation.
Uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria inhibit the coupling between the electron transport and phosphorylation reactions and thus inhibit ATP synthesis without affecting the respiratory chain and ATP synthase (H(+)-ATPase). Miscellaneous compounds are known to be uncouplers, but weakly acidic uncouplers are representative because they show very potent activities. The most poten...

was proportional to the acidity of the imidazole -NH group. Tetrachloro-2trifluoromethylbenzimidazole was the most active (50% uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation at 7-9 x 10-8M, pK5.04). Nitro-substituted analogues were less active than predicted from pK considerations or from partition-coefficient measurements. 3. Introduction of an -NH2 or -CO2H substituent caused a loss of uncoupling ac...
متن کاملUncouplers of rat-liver mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.
1. The ability of a series of compounds to uncouple oxidative phosphorylation of rat-liver mitochondria has been investigated. 2. The compounds were: 2-amino-1,1,3-tricyanopropene; carbonyl cyanide phenylhydrazone and its m-chloro and p-trifluoromethoxy derivatives; 4,5,6,7-tetrachloro-, 5-chloro-4-nitro-, 5-nitro-and 4,5,6,7-tetrachloro-1-methyl-benzotriazole; 4-hydroxy-3,5-di-iodo-, 3,5-di-br...
متن کاملUncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation can enhance a Fas death signal.
Recent work suggests a participation of mitochondria in apoptotic cell death. This role includes the release of apoptogenic molecules into the cytosol preceding or after a loss of mitochondrial membrane potential DeltaPsim. The two uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) and 2, 4-dinitrophenol (DNP) reduce DeltaPsim by direct attack of the proton ...
متن کاملThe monophenolic metabolites of the herbicide 2,6-dichlorobenzonitrile in animals as uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation.
1. Both monophenolic metabolites of 2,6-dichlorobenzonitrile (2,6-dichloro-3-hydroxybenzonitrile and its 4-hydroxy analogue) added to starved yeast cells incubated with a limited quantity of glucose cause a significant rise in oxygen consumption of the cells. 2. The same compounds induce adenosine-triphosphatase activity in isolated intact rat-liver mitochondria. 3. The possible role of the hyd...
