Isolated potato (Solanum tuberosum) tuber mitochondria purified by isopycnic centrifugation in density gradients of Percoll were found to be highly intact, to be devoid of extramitochondrial contaminations and to retain a high rate of O2 consumption. When suspended in a medium that avoided rupture of the outer membrane, intact purified mitochondria progressively lost their NAD+ content by passive diffusion. This led to a slow decrease of oxoglutarate-dependent O2 consumption by isolated mitochondria. Addition of NAD+ to the medium restored the initial State-3 rate of oxoglutarate oxidation. The rate of NAD+ accumulation in the matrix space was concentration-dependent, exhibited Michaelis-Menten kinetics and was strongly inhibited by the analogue N-4-azido-2-nitrophenyl-4-aminobutyryl-NAD+.
通过在Percoll密度梯度中进行等密度离心纯化得到的离体马铃薯(茄属)块茎线粒体被发现高度完整,没有线粒体外的污染物,并保持较高的氧气消耗率。当悬浮在避免外膜破裂的培养基中时,完整的纯化线粒体通过被动扩散逐渐失去其NAD⁺含量。这导致离体线粒体依赖于酮戊二酸的氧气消耗缓慢下降。向培养基中添加NAD⁺可恢复酮戊二酸氧化的初始状态3速率。NAD⁺在基质空间中的积累速率是浓度依赖性的,表现出米氏动力学,并受到类似物N-4-叠氮基-2-硝基苯基-4-氨基丁酰-NAD⁺的强烈抑制。
