  • Title: Studies of the oligomycin-sensitive ATPase from yeast mitochondria. Reconstitution of ATP-32Pi exchange in the presence of phospholipids.
    Author: Ryrie IJ.
    Journal: J Supramol Struct; 1975; 3(3):242-7. PubMed ID: 171520.
    Abstract:
    A purified preparation of the oligomycin-sensitive ATPase from yeast mitochondria has been shown to elicit an oligomycin- and uncoupler-senstitive ATP-32Pi exchange in the presence of phospholipids. Reconstitution was normally achieved by dialysis of an ATPase-phospholipid-cholate mixture. Following this procedure, vesicles with diameters between 200 and 1,500 A were seen by electron microscopy. As in mitochondria, ATPase activity in the reconstituted system was stimulated by a range of uncouplers which inhibited ATP-32Pi exchange. These and other findings suggest that the coupling mechanism may still be intact within the ATPase complex.
