Taniguchi, M, Hara, T and Honda, H (1986) Similarities between rat liver mitochondrial and cytosolic glutathione reductases and their apoenzyme accumulation in riboflavin deficiency. Biochem. Int. 13:447-54

Abstract

Glutathione reductase has been purified 5,500-fold from rat liver mitochondrial matrix in a yield of 30%. The mitochondrial enzyme was immunochemically indistinguishable from that of the cytosol and the subunit molecular weight was apparently similar to that of the cytosolic enzyme, that is, 50,000 daltons. The optimum pH and kinetic properties investigated were not significantly different from those of the cytosolic enzyme. When rats were fed a riboflavin-deficient diet, the enzyme activity in the mitochondria decreased to a greater extent than that in the cytosol, and greater accumulation of apo-enzyme in the former than that in the latter was confirmed by the amount of immunoprecipitable protein, activation by FAD addition in vitro, and the enzyme activity recovery after injection of riboflavin, into riboflavin-deficient rats.
