Role of critical thiol groups on the matrix surface of the adenine nucleotide translocase in the mechanism of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore.

McStay GP, Clarke SJ, Halestrap AP

Opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) is sensitized to [Ca(2+)] by oxidative stress (diamide) and phenylarsine oxide (PAO). We have proposed that both agents cross-link two thiol groups on the adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT) involved in ADP and cyclophilin-D (CyP-D) binding. Here, we demonstrate that blocking Cys(160) with 80 microM eosin 5-maleimide (EMA) or 500 microM N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) ... [more]
