[Induction of ion transport coupled to oxidative reactions in the membranes of mitochondria and liposomes].

The mechanism of induction of potassium permeability for mitochondrial membranes under special conditions was under study. Conditions were such as: 1--incubation of mitochondria in medium with low meaning of pH (6,0--6,5), 2--incubation in preseace of electrophylic agent--p-(N,N-di-2-chloroethyl) aminophenylacetic acid, which is hydrolized to HCl and 3-lipidsoluble acid, 2,4-dinitrophenol. It is shown that the named mechanism in any case requires the oxidation of lipids of mitochondrial membranes.
