Mitochondrial cation transport controls a number of vital mitochondrial functions and is also involved in many mitochondrial responses to altered conditions. Mitochondrial matrix free Ca 2+ concentration ([Ca2+] m) is increasingly recognized as a primary metabolic mediator. Because Mg 2+ and K+ function as cofactors in a wide range of vital reactions in the mitochondrial matrix, maintenance of homeostatis of these ions is very important. Furthermore, K+ also plays a role in control ofmitochondrial volume. While the physiological function of the native mitochondrial permeability transition pore (PTP) protein is currently the subject of speculation, it is clearly involved in at least part of the response to hypoxia and ischemia in many cell types, particularly during reperfusion. Thus, mitochondria probably play a role in determining whether irreversible damage to tissue occurs following both heart attack and stroke.As we learn more about these important mitochondrial cation transport functions and the mechanisms that mediate them, the experimental tools with which we seek to answer questions about the electrophysiological and biochemical characteristics of these mechanisms become increasingly sophisticated. Electrophysiological techniques using patch clamping or mitochondrial membrane components incorporated into planer bilayers can tell us considerably more about the conductance properties and alternative states of the cation transporters than can the older approaches involving measurements of transport kinetics. Isolation and reconstitution of the cation transporters opens the door not only to identifying the specific protein or complex responsible for a
