A new model for mitochondrial membranes based on structural and on biochemical information

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
A model describing the molecular structure of mitochondrial membranes was designed, which pays due attention to the fact that a large number of enzymes and electron carrier molecules are basic components of the membranes.

Physical principles of membrane organization.

TL;DR: An understanding of the physical principles that govern the molecular organization of membranes is essential for an understanding of their physiological roles since structure and function are much more interdependent in membranes than in, say, simple chemical reactions in solution.

Specimen preparation for electron microscopy using low temperature embedding resins

TL;DR: The first applications of the Lowicryl® K4M system to various membrane structures in glutaraldehyde‐fixed, uranyl acetate‐stained thin sections of bacteria, mitochondria and cell‐cell contact regions are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sialoglycoproteins and filtration barriers in the glomerular capillary wall.

TL;DR: The free surface coat on foot processes of rat glomerular epithelium stains particularly heavily with ruthenium red and osmium tetroxide, indicating a polyanionic sialoglycoprotein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Calorimetric and freeze fracture analysis of lipid phase transitions and lateral translational motion of intramembrane particles in mitochondrial membranes.

TL;DR: Calorimetric analyses suggest that both mitochondrial membranes are naturally fluid to the extent that the integrat membrane proteins can diffuse laterally in the bilayer lipid in the inner, energy transducing membrane.

Reconstitution of Cell Membrane Structure in vitro and its Transformation into an Excitable System

TL;DR: By forming such a membrane between two compartments filled with saline its transverse electrical properties can be measured, and controlled chemical investigations can be undertaken.

On bimolecular layers of lipoids on the chromocytes of the blood.

TL;DR: The blood of man and of the rabbit, dog, guinea pig, sheep, and goat is examined, and all results fit in well with the supposition that the chromocytes are covered by a layer of fatty substances that is two molecules thick.
