Release and binding of protein and enzymes from and to water-shocked vesicles obtained from rat liver mitochondria.

Release and binding of aspartate aminotransferase, malate dehydrogenase and protein from and to water-shocked vesicles obtained from rat liver mitochondria was shown to occur. The characteristics of this phenomenon were shown to depend on the effectors used. They were in some way different from those observed with whole mitochondria under similar conditions.
