- Abstract
- Metabolic control analysis was applied to intact HepG2 cells. The effect on the control coefficient of cytochrome c oxidase
(CcOX) over cell respiration of both the electrical (Delta-psi??) and chemical (Delta-?pH) component of the mitochondrial transmembrane
proton electrochemical gradient (Delta-muH) was investigated. The overall O2 consumption and specific CcOX activity of
actively phosphorylating cells were titrated with cyanide under conditions in which ??Delta-psi and Delta-?pH were selectively modulated by
addition of ionophores. In the absence of ionophores, CcOX displayed a high control coefficient (CIV = ?0.73), thus representing an
important site of regulation of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. A high control coefficient value (CIV ? = 0.85) was also
measured in the presence of nigericin, i.e., when ??Delta-muH is maximal, and in the presence of nigericin and valinomycin (CIV ?= 0.77), when
Delta-mu??H? is abolished. In contrast, CcOX displayed a markedly lower control coefficient (CIV ? = 0.30) upon addition of valinomycin,
when ??Delta-psi is converted into Delta-?pH. These results show that Delta-psi ??is responsible for the tight control of CcOX over respiration in
actively phosphorylating cells. (literal)
