Abstract: ADP is generally accepted as a key regulator of oxygen consumption both in isolated mitochondria and in permeabilized fibers from skeletal muscle. The present study explored inorganic phosphate in a similar regulatory role. Saponin permeabilized fibers and isolated mitochondria from type-I and type-II muscle from male Wistar rats were prepared. Respiration was measured while the medium Pi concentration was gradually increased. The apparent Km values for Pi were 607 ± 17 µM and 405 ± 15 μM (P < 0.0001) for type-I and type-II fibers, respectively. For isolated mitochondria the values were significantly lower than type-1 permeabilized fibers, 338 ± 130 μM and 235 ± 30 μM (P < 0.05), but not different with respect to fiber type. The reason for this difference in Km values in the permeabilized muscle is unknown, but a similar pattern has been observed for K m of ADP. Our data indicate that phosphate may play a role in regulation of oxygen consumption in vitro and in vivo.
