We have investigated the role of arginine residues in the regulation of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore, a cyclosporin A-sensitive inner membrane channel. Isolated rat liver mitochondria were treated with the arginine-specific chemical reagent 2,3-butanedione or phenylglyoxal, followed by removal of excess free reagent. After this treatment, mitochondria accumulated Ca2+ normally, but did not undergo permeability transition following depolarization, a condition that normally triggers opening of the permeability transition pore. Inhibition by 2,3-butanedione and phenylglyoxal correlated with matrix pH, suggesting that the relevant arginine(s) are exposed to the matrix aqueous phase. Inhibition by 2,3-butanedione was potentiated by berate and was reversed upon its removal, whereas inhibition by phenylglyoxal was irreversible. Treatment with 2,3-butanedione or phenylglyoxal after induction of the permeability transition by Ca2+ overload resulted in pore closure despite the presence of 0.5 mM Ca2+. At concentrations that were fully effective at inhibiting the permeability transition, these arginine reagents (i) had no effect on the isomerase activity of cyclophilin D and (ii) did not affect the rate of ATP translocation and hydrolysis, as measured by the production of a membrane potential upon ATP addition in the presence of rotenone, We conclude that reaction with 2,3-butanedione and phenylglyoxal results in a stable chemical modification of critical arginine residue(s) located on the matrix side of the inner membrane, which, in turn, strongly favors a closed state of the pore.
