1. 1. Atractyloside does not inhibit State-3 respiration in coupled Jerusalemartichoke mitochondria. 2. 2. Bongkrekic acid inhibits State-3 respiration in artichoke mitochondria in a similar way to that described for rat-liver mitochondria. 3. 3. The exchange of a small endogenous adenine nucleotide pool (0.5-3.0 nmoles/mg protein) is extremely slow and unspecific, and is insensitive to atractyloside and bongkrekic acid, indicating the absence of a translocator similar to that known for animal mitochondria. © 1973.
