Although I had hoped that the chemiosmotic rationale of vectorial metabolism and biological
energy transfer might one day come to be generally accepted, it would have been …

The widespread occurrence and function of quinones in diverse biological systems with
particular reference to their role in oxygen activation has been reviewed and discussed. The …

During the course of measuring superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in rat breast tissue,
interferences in the nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) and cytochrome c assay systems were …

In 1961, two concepts of energy coupling were published, one by Mitchell I and the other by
Williams z, both dealing with the transfer of charges (electrons, H÷, OH-) in biological energy …

Rat and pigeon heart mitochondria supplemented with antimycin produce 0.3–1.0 nmol of
H2O2/min per mg of protein. These rates are stimulated up to 13-fold by addition of …

Abstract Antimycin, 2-nonyl-4-hydroxyquinoline N-oxide and funiculosin induce O·− 2
generation by submitochondrial particles oxidizing succinate, whereas KCN, mucidin …

Succinate dehydrogenase and fumarate reductase are complex flavoproteins with strikingly
similar catalytic and physical properties. Succinate dehydrogenase is present in aerobic …

Ubiquinone participates in the oxidation-reduction reactions of the mitochondrial respiratory
chain. In addition, this molecule possesses the necessary properties to function as a …

To those not more than peripherally involved in the field of Fe-S clusters in mitochondria it
must appear that by now the essentials have been discovered and issues resolved so that …

It has been suggested that activation of mitochondrial respiration by thyroid hormone results
in oxidative tissue injury secondary to increased reactive oxygen species production. In …
