Almost complete phospholipid depletion has been achieved for Complex I and III of the mitochondrial respiratory chain using a technique that involves elution on Sephadex LH-20 in the presence of Triton X-100. Enzymic activity may be regenerated by replenishment with phospholipid. However, restoration of enzymic activity in phospholipid-depleted Complex I and III has been shown to require the presence of cardiolipin. These results are, therefore, similar to findings on the absolute catalytic… CONTINUE READING
