    • Abstract

       

      The temperature sensitive release and uptake of ATP through theAspergillus niger G3Br membrane vesicles followed saturation kinetics. Both the processes which occurred in the absence of mycobacillin were greatly enhanced by its presence. Liposomes prepared with antifilipin sterol and lipid showed the release and uptake of ATP in the presence of filipin, but no such uptake and release was seen with antimycobacillin sterol and lipid in the presence of mycobacillin. However the liposomes supplemented withAspergillus niger membranes protein (s) showed the release and uptake of ATP, implicating membrane protein as a carrier in the transport process.

      Forthcoming Special issue.


    • To trigger further research on plant mitochondria, the Journal of Biosciences is bringing out a special issue titled "Plant Mitochondria: Properties and Interactions with Other Organelles".


      Plant mitochondria are quite distinct and have unique features, such as a cyanide-insensitive alternate pathway. They also interact with chloroplasts to optimize photosynthetic carbon assimilation.


      Submissions are welcome until 30 July 2023. The contributions can be original articles, short communications, reviews, or mini-reviews on any topic related to plant mitochondria.


      Authors can submit their articles online at https://www.editorialmanager.com/jbsc/default2.aspx
