Problem 14.21 - Enhanced - with Solution 19 of 19 Assuming a membrane potential across the inner ...
Calcium is an important regulator of the citric acid cycle. Calcium is transported across the mitochondrial inner membrane by a Ca2+ uniporter that is driven by the negative potential inside the matrix. Part A Assuming a membrane potential across the inner membrane of 179 mV (inside negative), calculate the ratio of the [Ca2+] in the matrix to that in the cytoplasm ([Ca2+]m/[Ca2+]c) that would exist at equilibrium (i.e., ΔG=0). Part B Cytoplasmic [Ca2+] is on the order of 10−7M in...
(1) Mitochondria regulate the concentration of calcium ions in the cytoplasm, by allowing the ions to equilibrate across the mitochondrial membrane. If the mitochondrion has a membrane potential of –150 mV relative to the cytoplasm, and the cytoplasmic concentration of Ca2+ is 1 μM, what is the mitochondrial Ca2+ concentration? Assume a temperature of 37 C. (2) The membrane calcium pump of the malarial parasite Trypanosoma cruzipumps out calcium ions from the parasite cell interior, hydrolyzing one molecule of ATP...
Which statement is TRUE? The membrane potential is negative on the cytoplasmic side and positive on the matrix side. The genomes of mitochondria don't range in size across species. The inner membrane is quite permeable because it contains mitochondrial porin, or VDAC (voltage-dependent anion channel). Mitochondria are semi-autonomous organelles, because mitochondria depend on the cell, and cells that contain mitochondria in turn depend on these organelles for oxidative phosphorylation. In bacteria, ATP-synthesizing complexes are located in the outer plasmatic membrane.
Can someone show the details on how to solve this problem?
