The pH‐dependent anion‐conducting channel of the mitochondrial inner membrane is potently inhibited by zinc ions

Abstract: Zinc is a potent reversible inlubitor of the pH-dependent anion-conductmg channel m the mitochondrial inner membrane, 50% inhibition was produced by 1.5 PM added Zn" at which point free Zn" was 5 10~8 M. Inhibition by Zn" IS rapid but can be prevented or rapidly reversed by excess EDTA. Concentrations of Zn" higher than 4 PM caused reversal of inhibition to a variable extent depending on the anion. Under these conditions Zn*' did not inhibit ribose entry, the phosphate transporter, or the pH-Insensitive compon… Show more

“…For instance, Zn was found to bind to myoglobin and increase the oxygen affinity (oxygenation) of myoglobin (Rifkind et al, 1977). Additionally, Zn ions inhibit mitochondrial respiration (Selwyn et al, 1993;Saris and Niva, 1994); therefore, diminishing the mitochondrial oxygen consumption rate and maintaining meat color (O'Keefe and Hood, 1982). Furthermore, Zn has been reported to prevent the formation of reactive oxygen species through a mechanism that may involve protection of sulfhydryl groups against oxidation (Bettger and O'Dell, 1981), and/or displacement of redox transition metals from site-specific loci.…”
