Does an inhibitor of mitochondrial adenylate kinase also affect oxidative phosphorylation?
Abstract
Adenylate kinase activity of intact mitochondria is strongly inhibited by Ap5A, i.e. p1,p5-Di (adenosine-5') pentaphosphate, whereas oxidative phosphorylation is not affected. Therefore, Ap5A is a useful tool to distinguish between oxidative and non oxidative ATP generating reactions.
