Different pool sizes of the precursor polypeptides of cytochrome oxidase from Neurospora crassa.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pulse-labelling experiments with growing Neurospora crassa revealed that the polypeptides composing the protein moiety of a cytochrome oxidase preparation are derived from at least four independent pools of precursor polypeptides. The pool sizes range from 2 ° f 0 to 25 °/0 of the amount of the corresponding polypeptide present in cytochrome oxidase. The smallest pool is assigned to a polypeptide of mitochondrial origm. Serial pools were found for one of the polypeptides.

Inhibition of the assembly of cytochrome oxidase in Neurospora crassa by chloramphenicol.
Cytochrome oxidasewas prepared from Neurospora crassa by chromatography on oleyl polymethacrylic acid resin and separated into seven polypeptides by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecylsulfate. Incorporation oflabelled amino acids into the single polypeptideswas investigated after a pulse labelling in the absence and presence of chloramphenicol, and afterwashing ...
متن کاملRegulation of Mitochondrial Membrane Assembly in Neurospora crassa
Cultures of mutant cni-1, a chromosomal mutant of Neurospora crassa, undergo a marked change in respiratory properties as the age of the culture increases. Early log phase cultures have a high level of respiration that is insensitive to inhibition by cyanide or antimycin A. Late log and stationary phase cultures have reduced rates of respiration. A high percentage of this respiration is inhibit...

Three different cell types of Neurospora crussa deficient in cytochrome oxidase were studied : the nuclear mutant cni-1, the cytoplasmic mutant mi-1 and copper-depleted wild-type cells. 1. The enzyme-deficient cells have retained a functioning mitochondrial protein synthesis. It accounted for 1216 % of the total protein synthesis of the cell. However, the analysis of mitochondrial translation p...

متن کاملSynthesis of cytochrome oxidase components in isolated mitochondria of Neurosora crassa.
The formation of polypeptides within the mitochondrion has been documented by a large body of evidence. The ability of isolated mitochondria to incorporate amino acids into membrane protein is an expression of this cellular capacity (for reviews see [ l-61 ). However, until now it has not been demonstrated that isolated mitochondria are able to synthesize definite polypeptides which are compone...
