  • Title: [Some characteristics of mitochondrial multienzyme systems from rat liver mitochondria after heating of rats].
    Author: Rakhimov MM, Almatov Kt.
    Journal: Biokhimiia; 1977 Oct; 42(10):1852-63. PubMed ID: 200283.
    Abstract:
    A character of rat liver mitochondria degradation after the heat treatment of animals is studied. It is found that mitochondria under the effect of elevated temperature do not considerably change their functional characteristics and thus they are capable to provide the normal rate of ATP synthesis, the rate of succinate oxidation being slightly increased. At the same time the heating caused the degradation of mitochondria which results in the decrease of their thermostability, in the increased susceptibility to lytic effect of trypsin and phospholipase D, and in the activation of succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome c oxidase. The mitochondria degradation is due to the formation of "latent impairments" in the structure of mitochondria.
