Abstract
The ATPase activity of Zajdela hepatoma and Yoshida sarcoma submitochondrial particles was several times lower than the enzyme activity in rat heart and rat liver submitochondrial particles. The content of F1-ATPase in the tumor mitochondria was found not to be very different from that in mitochondria of rat liver. Immunochemical determination of the amount of the natural ATPase inhibitor revealed that the tumor mitochondria contain 2–3-times more ATPase inhibitor than control mitochondria. It is concluded that the low ATPase activity of the tumor mitochondria results from the inhibition of the enzyme activity by the natural ATPase inhibitor.Keywords
