Abstract

In this study, the mechanism of non-specific membrane permeability (yPTP) in the Endomyces magnusii yeast mitochondria under oxidative stress due to blocking the key antioxidant enzymes has been investigated. We used monitoring the membrane potential at the cellular (potentialdependent staining) and mitochondrial levels and mitochondria ultra-structural images with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to demonstrate the mitochondrial permeability transition induction due to the pore opening. Analysis of the yPTP opening upon respiring different substrates showed that NAD(P)H completely blocked the development of the yPTP. The yPTP opening was inhibited by 5-20 mM Pi, 5 mM Mg2 , adenine nucleotides (AN), 5 mM GSH, the inhibitor of the Pi transporter (PiC), 100 μM mersalyl, the blockers of the adenine nucleotide transporter (ANT) carboxyatractyloside (CATR), and bongkrekic acid (BA). We concluded that the non-specific membrane permeability pore opens in the E. magnusii mitochondria under oxidative stress, and the ANT and PiC are involved in its formation. The crucial role of the Ca2 ions in the process has not been confirmed. We showed that the Ca2 ions affected the yPTP both with and without the Ca2 ionophore ETH129 application insignificantly. This phenomenon in the E. magnusii yeast unites both mitochondrial unselective channel (ScMUC) features in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondria and the classical membrane pore in the mammalian ones (mPTP).
