  • Title: Monovalent carboxylic ionophores inhibit transport of carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase I into mitochondria in Reuber hepatoma H-35 cells and cause accumulation of enzyme precursor.
    Author: Kitagawa Y, Murakami A, Sugimoto E.
    Journal: FEBS Lett; 1984 Jan 02; 165(1):133-7. PubMed ID: 6692910.
    Abstract:
    Transport of the precursor for carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase I into mitochondria in Reuber hepatoma H-35 cells was inhibited by adding monensin or nigericin to the culture medium at a concentration of 0.5 microM, and the enzyme precursor accumulated, mainly in the cytosolic fraction. Accumulated precursor was degraded slowly with a half-life of more than 16 min. Valinomycin, nonactin, A23187, X-537A (lasalocid), bromo-lasalocid, and carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone did not exhibit these effects at concentrations at which they did not inhibit protein synthesis of the cells.
