| Abstract | Recently proposed mechanisms of site II energy transduction that assign a key role to cytochrome b-566 are based on the finding that the apparent midpoint potential of b-566 in animal mitochondria increases by more than 250 mV upon addition of ATP [Chance et al. (1970) Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 66, 1175-1182]. However, since it has never been shown that the redox mediators used in the midpoint potential measurements equilibrate directly with b-566, the observed midpoint potential shift could merely reflect reversed electron transport. In mung bean mitochondria, the apparent midpoint potential of b-566 is known to be unaffected by addition of ATP [Dutton and Storey (1971) Plant Physiol. 47, 282-288]. In the present work, mung bean b-566 is shown to undergo an ATP-induced reduction similar to that observed for b-566 in animal mitochondria. However, in mung bean mitochondria the reduction is found to be rapidly relaxed by addition of redox mediator (phenazine methosulfate, PMS) and concomitantly PMS causes a marked, antimycinsensitive stimulation of ATPase activity. These results suggest that the ATP-induced reduction in mung bean mitochondria is due to reversed electron transport and that PMS can effectively short-circuit reversed electron transport in this system, bringing it close to equilibrium. Moreover, since mung bean and animal b-566 are identical in all other respects tested, the results support the idea that the apparent midpoint potential shift in animal mitochondria is also merely due to reversed electron transport, and that the mediators are now not effective enough to bring the system to equilibrium. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
