  • Title: The control of malate dehydrogenase activity by adenine nucleotides in purified potato tuber (Solanum tuberosum L.) mitochondria.
    Author: Rustin P, Valat M.
    Journal: Arch Biochem Biophys; 1986 May 15; 247(1):62-7. PubMed ID: 3707142.
    Abstract:
    The limiting factors of the involvement of malate dehydrogenase in mitochondrial malate oxidation were investigated by using Percoll-purified potato tuber mitochondria. The respective roles of reduced pyridine nucleotides, oxaloacetate, and adenine nucleotides were studied under conditions of high or low phosphorylation potential (Pi + ADP/ATP ratio). Under conditions of high phosphorylation potential, the limitation of malate dehydrogenase activity was caused by the accumulation of oxaloacetate in the medium. In the absence of ADP (phosphorylation potential close to zero), ATP was responsible for the inhibition of malate dehydrogenase activity rather than oxaloacetate or reduced pyridine nucleotides.
