I he overall process of oxidative phosphorylation in m; ininialian tissues allows the oxidation of respiratory friels to produce useful energy in the form of ATP. It involves the formation of LAD1 1 and reducrd f1; ivoproteins by mitochondrial dehydrogenases,; ind their subsequent oxidation by molecular oxygen in the niitochondrial inner membrane 11-41. The latter process is c. atalysed by the respiratory chain iind occurs in a stepwise manner, so that the redox energy available in the electrons from NAI) I I; id from flavoproteins can he harnessed by pumping protons from the matrix face of the inner mrmbrane to the cytoplasmic side. l’he resultant protonmotive gr; idient is used to drive the synthesis of ATI’. while the ATP-synthetase reaction is held far from equilibrium so that subsequent A7’P hydrolysis can provide usefill energy for the cell. As witti any enzymic-based process, the net rate of oxidative phosphorylation can be regulated hy substrate supply, by end-product inhibition, and by the activities of the enzymes involved. Thus, chmges in the mitochondrial redox status, the ATI’/AI) P. PI ratio. the protonmotive gradient, the supply of oxygen, and the activity of components of the respiratory chain, may all play; I role [1-41, The sh; ire of control that is exerted by each mechanism varies according to the particular cellular circumstances. For instance. under ‘resting’cellular conditions, it is probable that, as A ‘I’P use will be at a minimurn. the ATI’/AI) 1’. 1’, ratio will achieve a high steady-state level and so exert a feedback inhibitory influence on the protonmotive gradient. This will then build up, arid so will have a similar effect
