Abstract
Glycerol-3-phosphate oxidation in brown adipose tissue mitochondria of cold-adapted hamster is strongly inhibited by phospholipase A(2) (PLA (2)). Our data show that the glycerol-3-phosphate branch of the respir atory chain is sensitive to PLA(2) action more than the succinate bran ch and that the transfer of reducing equivalents from the glycerol-3-p hosphate dehydrogenase to arteficial electron acceptor is especially s ensitive to the PLA(2)-action.
