摘要
Control of β-hydroxybutyrate oxidation by succinate occurred via two mechanisms in E+ liver mitochondria and one of these was energy-dependent (reversal of electron transport). Addition of an energy trapping system (Pi-acceptor) to E+ mitochondria resulted in loss of energy-dependent control by succinate. Pi-acceptor had no effect on control in E- mitochondria, indicating that reversal of electron transport was not functional in these preparations. ATP was inefficient as an energy source for succinate control in E- mitochondria. Menadione inhibited control of β-hydroxybutyrate oxidation in both E- and E+ mitochondria. The effect of menadione is consistent with its capacity to by-pass the NADH-Coenzyme Q reductase segment of the respiratory chain. © 1969.
