Аннотация:Antimycin, 2-nonyl-4-hydroxyquinoline N-oxide and funiculosin induce O2- generation by submitochondrial particles oxidizing succinate, whereas KCN, mucidin, myxothiazol or 2,3-dimercaptopropanol inhibit O2̇- generation. Thenoyltrifluoroacetone does not induce superoxide production by itself but slightly stimulates the reaction initiated by antimycin. The results indicate that auto-oxidation of unstable ubisemiquinone formed in centre o of the Q-cycle generates most of the O2̇- radicals in the cytochrome bc1-site of the mitochondrial respiratory chain.
